Seasonal Activity Chart
Carp
Redding offers surprisingly good carp fishing opportunities, especially if you're looking for a challenging fight. The Sacramento River and its associated sloughs and backwaters hold a robust carp population. These fish thrive in the warmer waters and are readily available throughout the spring, summer, and fall months. Corn and boilies are effective baits, and pre-baiting your chosen spot can significantly increase your chances of success. A good starting point is exploring the areas around Caldwell Park, where you'll find accessible bank fishing spots. Be mindful of the recreational boat traffic, especially during the summer. The carp in the Sacramento River system tend to be quite large and powerful, often exceeding 20 pounds, so bring appropriate tackle.
