Got out at dawn and just crushed with the Heddon Super Spook. They were definitely triggered with the Bone finish. It was fish on just about every other cast. The top water bite fell off at about 8:30 am, so off we went dropping a senko just off the bank, focusing on rocks and brush piles. It was beautiful day on the river.

Well, I went out with the ambition of fishing jerk baits cuz I've been reading the fall transition is a good time for that tactic....but I guess the Sacramento River doesn't know that yet...So after an hour or so of nothing happening with a couple different jerk baits, I switched over to the tried and true wacky rig and had some fun. Still a little slower than my last couple of trips out here, but managed to grab 10 for the day. I stayed about 25 feet off shore and was casting back about 10 feet off shore. You just need to be patient and get that bait down to the bottom and that's where they were biting. On this day, it was the Yamamoto 5" Senko in Watermelon and White that had them biting. Full disclosure on this picture...It looks like a monster, but pushing that fish out towards the camera will do that...:) This was my best one of the day though at about 1.5 lbs.
