“When I am
fishing a frog or
flipping matted
vegetation, I
am throwing the
new X-TCB 8
Carrier Braided
Line form P-Line.
It is critical to
be stealthy with
both techniques,
and with P-line’s
new braid, you
can make longer
casts and it is
ultra quiet com-
ing through the
grass.”

COLLINS LAKE RAINBOWS… Trout fishing
is underway with fish to 4 lbs showing in the
catches. Bank anglers are tossing PowerBait while
trollers pull Kastmasters.
2.
GOLDEN GATE ROCKFISH… Rockfish and
lingcod are in abundance for anglers departing
from S.F. Bay ports. Shrimp flies and jigs are paying
heavy dividends.
3.
LAKE DAVIS TROUT… Bank anglers and
trollers are hooking good numbers of trout.
Dough baits, salmon eggs and inflated worms are
doing the damage for bank anglers. Spoons and flies
work for trollers.
4.
DELTA STRIPERS… The striper bite is going
strong and trollers are hooking double digit
numbers of bass per day. For bass up to and beyond
10 lbs anglers are pulling minnow plugs in the
Sacramento and San Joaquin.
GOOD BETS…
5.
IT ALL ADDS UP
SHASTA RAINBOWS… The rainbows are
scattered, but hard working trollers are boating
limits to 4lbs. Work the top 25 feet with shad imitating
spoons for success
6.
TO MORE FISH IN THE BOAT.
PYRAMID CUTTHROATS… Trollers and jiggers
are hooking trout up to and beyond 15 lbs. Look
for bank fishing to kick into gear as the trout move
shallower and closer to shore.
7.
FRENCH MEADOWS BROWNS…Brown trout
are on the chomp. Both Rapalas and inflated
worms are working during the early morning and late
evening hours.
8.
SANTA CRUZ BOTTOMFISH…Big rockfish are
on the bite along the central coast. With lots of
fish moving shallow, the action is great on light tackle
trips..
SLEEPERS…

moving toward the surface and grabbing shad.
To hook the trout troll Speedy Shiners and minnow
plugs from 2 to 3.5 mph.
10.
BOGEDA ROCKFISH… Limit style rockfish
action continues to reward anglers. Metal jigs
teamed with white shrimp fly teasers are working well.
11.
TWIN LAKES RAINBOWS…Twin Lakes are
booting out limits of rainbows and some of
them weigh over 5 lbs. Trollers employ Rapalas, while
bank anglers soak PowerBait and worms.

Steelheading will peak on the Trinity River in
early November. Both fly and conventional anglers will
get in on the excitement.

more sensitive, improved knot strength,
stronger, and unmatched abrasion resistance.

longer casts, vibration reduction and a near
zero stretch factor for unparalleled power.
