Hello From Northen California

[Lunker Hunter]

Hello everybody!

I was invited here by some friends here in California. It looks like you guys really have what it takes to get into the fish and have some good times.

I am from a small town in the mountains/foothills called Placerville California. We're 15 minutes from where the California Gold rush began and have many beautiful lakes within an hour holding large Brown trout, rainbow trout, Lake trout, Kokanee and much more.

1 hour to our West we have the Sacramento river Delta which holds a large population of Striped Bass, Sturgeon, Salmon, etc.

A little further down the hill is the Pacific ocean which gives us our Salt water fix when we need it. The Ling cod/rock cod fishing is excellent and the California Halibut are hard fighting good eating treasures!

In the immediate area around the house we have some small lakes with some great largemouth bass fishing.

While our fisheries aren't as productive as your East Coast fisheries we do have enough action to keep the lines wet and the rods bent!

I live to fish, fish to live, and wouldn't trade it for the world!

I am looking forward to learning some of your techniques and reading about your East Coast adventures.

He wanted to tell the stewardess that we were on our honeymoon to see if we could get bumped up to 1st class...
