They must sell many thousands of them every spring. I would guess that Kittles sells the most minnows of any Norcal tackle shop with the possible exception of a shop or two at Clear Lake. The bottom line is that Kittle’s is your reliable source for quality live minnows and shiners. If feeding the bass live minnows isn’t your style, the fishing department features a complete line of trolling lures, topwater plugs, swimbaits, spoons and of course large black plastic worms. If there is one iconic bait for anglers that ply up river bass it’s the deadly “Black Plastic Worm”! Kittle’s is located at 888 Market Street in Colusa or you can shop online by visiting www.kittlesoutdoor.com. If you’d like to call the folks at Kittle’s, the phone number is (530) 458-4868. The New Colusa Boat Launching Facility The brand-new City Of Colusa Boat Launching Facility on the Sacramento River opened on December 28! Colusa is a hub of fishing and hunting in the Sacramento Valley, so it’s only appro- priate that the City of Colusa now features a long overdue state of the art boat launching facility. With the ramp and docks in place, more amenities are planned and/or underway including landscaping and a fish cleaning station. Pat Kittle of Kittle’s Outdoor and Sport Co. is one of the folks in the Colusa community that strongly supported and helped push forward this project that will benefit hunters, anglers and recreational boaters as well as the larger Colusa community. Call Rustic Rob’s Guide Service & Hook Up With Spring Stripers! have fished the Sacramento, Feather and Yuba Rivers for over three decades. Giving me the fish catching experience that there’s no substitute for. Although river fishing is my first love, I do enjoy some lake fishing. I do guide on some lakes to fill in the holes between seasons on the river. My friends and relatives had told me for years before I got my guides license, I should. Being amazed at the enjoyment I get from watching someone else catching fish, as well as helping him or her to become a better fisherman. Not satisfied just being on the cutting edge, but creating tomorrow’s next best thing. Your day with me will be from the time we start until we limit out the boat or you say it’s time to go home. So come spend the day with me and let’s create some hand shaking, high fiving, life long friendships and memories... Your day with me will start most commonly before daylight. We’ll meet at the most convenient place for everyone which most likely will be at the boat ramp where we’ll launch, or at the local bait shop. No matter what time we start your day with me will be from the time we start until we limit out or you say it’s time to go home! Unlike most guides, my boat has a wind- shield a top and a heater for your comfort. The weather will predict whether or not I have the top up. I will supply everything you will need for fishing; boat, rods & reels, all bait and tackle an ice chest for cold drinks. You will need a valid California fishing license, a steelhead report card if we are fishing for steelhead, Sturgeon report card if we’re fishing for sturgeon as well as Striper, a two rod stamp is optional. Dress for cold weather; remember it’s always colder on the water than it is at home. It’s best to dress in layers because as cold as it is in the morning it gets pretty warm in the afternoon. The sun’s reflection off the water is pretty strong so remember the sunscreen as well as insect repellent. I do carry some on board but it’s best to bring your own. Pack a lunch, sandwiches, cold chicken etc. Preferably a lunch you can eat with one hand because you’ll be catching fish with the other. Bring some cold drinks; remember I’ll have an ice chest on board. For more infor- mation, visit my website at www. rusticrob.com.
