More Z-Rays?!?!!

I was working out yesterday, when I received a call from my brother Ron aka "The Rebel."  In the middle of my run, I couldn't pick up the phone, but I got the message that my favorite Z-Rays were on sale at Wild Sports in Orangevale.  Wild what?!?!?!  I have never been there and they're about to close out?  A quick Google search, gave me the information on this link: http://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article193066524.html

Yes, you guessed it!  I just got back from there.  Everything in the store is 50% off!!!  Check it out.  The original Wittmann Z-Ray lures are still available there!!!  I purchased a few 😀  Hey, I left more than a hundred there for any brother that wants to buy some.  With the discount, the lures are about $1.85 each depending upon the sizes.

Have a great day.

Another Day of Fishing?!?!!

Wow.  2018 fishing year is starting out with a bang for JU!

Got another offer to go fishing with my brother, the Captain, yesterday in the Delta.  Got two bites, but none landed.  Can't win 'em all.

If the Captain is sitting in the bow, then who is operating the boat?


Did see a ship the size of a building floating by....

By the way, according to the experts, we didn't do too bad for the opener of the steelhead season in the Upper American River.  Check out this article by JD Richey: New Year's dud: High hopes but stealhead stay away

PRO, you da man!!!

Peace out,

Thread a Crawler.... Catch a Fish!

The opening day for stealhead fishing in the Upper American River is today!  I have the pleasure of fishing with PRO and the American.  We drifted from Sunrise to Rossmoor Bar.  We started at 10 AM and shared the river with many other fishermen.  There were lots of boats on the water, including many well known Fishing Guides with their clients.  The excitement of opening day is electrifying, and I am blessed to be a part of it!

2018 fishing license: check!

Can be used as a scarf 😁

Salmon/Steelhead Slammer aka SSS: ready!


Excitable fishermen: ready!

Actually, it was not that easy!!!  It was a rough day of fishing.  We fished from 10 AM to 3 PM.  We witnessed only one guy landing a fish.  When we caught up with him, he told us he landed a sucker fish 😲

Near the end of the day, we boated and released a wild stealhead!

First day of the year; first fish of the year!

We were extremely blessed!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

May God bless your day,
