Northern California Fishing Reports

Real-Time Fishing Updates and Catch Results

Stay current with the latest conditions and success stories from the water. Our fishing reports provide the most reliable information for planning your next trip to the Sacramento River or the Oregon coast.

Trophy Fish Caught

Recent outings have yielded impressive results, with our guests landing massive King Salmon and hefty Lingcod. On the Sacramento River, we are currently seeing a strong push of Chinook Salmon, with some "chrome" bright fish weighing in at over 30 pounds. Meanwhile, the nearshore reefs near Gold Beach have been productive for trophy-sized Lingcod and limits of Rockfish. Whether it's a 25-inch Rainbow Trout near Anderson or a hard-fighting Striped Bass in the Colusa stretches, our recent catches prove that the bite is active. These results are a testament to our local knowledge and dedication to putting you on the fish of a lifetime.

Family-Friendly Fishing Adventures

We believe that some of the best memories are made on the water, which is why Jacob Frye's Guide Service specializes in family-friendly fishing. Our 25' Alumaweld jet boat is designed for safety and stability, providing a comfortable environment for anglers of all ages. We offer specialized, kid-friendly trips that focus on high-action species like Rainbow Trout or Bluegill to keep young anglers engaged and excited. Our easy-going approach ensures that whether it's your child's first time holding a rod or a multi-generational family outing, the day is fun, educational, and stress-free. We provide all the professional gear and safety equipment, so your family can simply focus on the joy of the catch.

Fishing Year-Round in Northern California and Oregon

Our business provides exceptional opportunities for fishing year-round, adapting our locations to follow the most productive seasonal bites. In the winter months, we focus on Winter Steelhead in the Rogue River and Sacramento River tributaries. As spring arrives, we transition to the highly anticipated Spring Chinook run and Shasta Lake trout. The summer and fall months bring peak King Salmon action in Gold Beach and heavy Striped Bass numbers in Colusa. Because we operate across multiple prime waterbodies, we can pivot to wherever the conditions are most favorable, ensuring that our services remain reliable no matter the season.
