May 20;  Brian Vaile caught this fish on the outgoing tide. Shad, 29", light tackle.  Sacramento River just East of Sherman Lake.
March 6:  Mark Fehrenbach of Rio Vista caught this nice sturgeon near Rio Vista with ghost and grass shrimp for bait.  It was a great day sunny and warm.  This fish was very strong.  The fight was very fun.
Jan 31:  Mark Fehrenbach of Rio Vista writes:  It was a pleasant day on the water.  I was using shrimp for bait.  The fight was great.  The fish jumped 2 times. Turned the boat to which ever direction it ran.  Finally, the fish was tiring out, but had enough strength to head for the anchor line.  No problem I landed him by myself. All in all this was another great Sturgeon experience. 

Dec 7:  Terry caught this 42" Striper from the shore at Tracy Wildlife Assoc. (Old River)

Nov 7-8: Mark FehrenbachI fished with friend Dean. On both trips we went to middle ground and the cuts and caught stripers.  In the pictures you will see Dean holding a nice 10 1/2 lbs striper and me holding a 8 1/2 these we caught on bullhead. 

Nov 8:  Mark FehrenbachI.  Everyone that fishes enjoys the excitement of the run when they pick up the bait and start stripping line.

Nov 9:  Mark FehrenbachI fished with his Dad and caught a nice 14 lbs. Striper on shad as they would not take live bullheads this day.  Mark says "it was great to have him catch this fish as he was the one that introduced me to fishing at a early age in New Jersey."
