Fishin’ James Guide Service

Specialties

I specialize in Sacramento River king salmon, Folsom Lake kings and trout, Lake Berryessa kings, kokanee, and trout, and New Melones Reservoir kokanee and trout. From the expert to the first timer, I will hold nothing back to demonstrate how to fill your boat with fish and enjoy yourself doing it. I provide all the rods, reels, tackle that we will be using. Got a new rig you wanna try out? Bring it, we’ll break it in the right way! And I will clean and fillet your fish to your choosing. All you need to bring is a valid California Fishing License, food and drinks, and a small ice chest for your catch. If you have any questions, feel free to give me a call. I’ll give on the water advice and I don’t keep secrets.

History

Established in 2012.

I have been fishing, according to my parents, since I was 6 months old. I probably was not «really» fishing, but that’s what they tell me. Its a way of life for me.

My goal is to create a memory that lasts a lifetime. And in the past couple years, I have had the privilege of being there with my clients while they experienced these memories. Many first time fishermen, as young as 3yrs old, have caught their first fish with me. And some as old as 93 have enjoyed putting another fish on the stringer.

Business Owner

I have been fishing since I was able to hold a fishing rod in the lakes and rivers all over Northern California. I specialize in King Salmon, Kokanee Trout, Land Locked King Salmon on the Sacramento River, American River, Folsom Lake, Lake Berryessa and Feather River. My goal is to allow you to sit back, relax, and enjoy yourself while I do whatever it takes to put you into the fight of a monster King Salmon. Or Two. I provide all the top quality equipment from Shimano and Penn reels, to Lamiglas and Shimano rods. Something that is very important to me is the remembrance of our veterans and the sacrifice they made. If you see my boat out on the water and I am flying an American flag, that means I have a veteran on board. Stop on by and be sure to say, «Thank you for your service,» to the veterans I have the privilege of guiding. My goal is to be your perfect fishing trip guide.
