Carp
Red Bluff's section of the Sacramento River is a haven for carp anglers. These often-overlooked fish thrive in the river's nutrient-rich waters and offer a challenging and rewarding fishing experience. Spring and summer are the best times to target carp, as they become more active in warmer water. Pre-baiting your fishing spot with corn or boilies can significantly increase your chances of success. Look for areas with slower current and muddy bottoms, where carp tend to forage. A great access point is near the Red Bluff Recreation Area, where you can fish from the bank or launch a small boat. Remember to use heavier tackle, as carp can grow to impressive sizes. The carp in the Sacramento River are known for their resilience and willingness to put up a good fight. Don't be surprised if you hook into a fish weighing over 20 pounds!
