Hi Louis,

Salmon come into the Sacramento drainage almost year round. We have mostly
"King" salmon with some "Silvers" entering the Klamath and Trinity rivers.

We have endangered "Spring Salmon" or "Springers" that are Kings that come
into some of the Sacramento valley rivers Feb - May.

Starting around the 4th of July we get some small schools of early run
fall
spawning Kings into the valley rivers but because of the limited numbers
and
high heat they are not easily caught on a fly.

As mentioned here in another post, the lower Feather River near Oroville
in
September is the number one place to catch a salmon on a fly in
California.

The furthest south would be the lower American River in Sacramento for
King
salmon in October.

Thanks all especially Sierra Fisher and Bill Klein.
I keep forgetting the whole world reads here! Silly me!
I did mean USA and more specific southern California. I know there is salmon
fishing north of San Francisco but I am in southern CA and as I am not
practiced in fly fishing, the first few times I didn't want to travel far.
Well maybe when I get work up in north CA. Or if I get more proficient
catching a different species first.
Thanks all again.
