California Delta

Q: What do you need to know about California Delta?

The California Delta is one of the premiere fisheries in the United States! It has some giant largemouth bass that live in the thick grass that is plentiful in the Delta. For as good as the fishing can be at the Delta, figuring out how to make them bite can sometimes be a challenge. The Delta is a tidal fishery and these tides act as a dinner bell for the fish. When the tide is on the move, those fish want to bite and when the tide is slack, bites can be tough to come by. When it comes to colors on the Delta, red definitely stands out. Often the Delta has clear water, but there may be areas or times where there is a lot of stained and even muddy water. When this is the case stick with black and blue colors, or black and red colors. Staple colors like green pumpkin, bluegill patterns and Shad patterns will also work, but for whatever reason those Delta bass seem to key in on red!
