My name is Aidan and I love fishing, but I struggled to find places to fish near me. I created this website to help people in the Sacramento area find fishing spots near where they live, so they don’t have to go through years of finding fishing places like I did. All photographs on this website are my own, and I have fished at each of these locations.
I have a few general recommendations that may help you if you are just starting to fish.
- If you are under sixteen, no license is required.
- If you are over the age of sixteen, be sure to get a fishing license first. You can purchase these at most sports stores or at Walmart.
- I like fishing with light weight fishing poles and line. Some of the fun when fishing comes from feeling the fish on the end of your rod, and a light weight pole allows you to do that.
- Bluegill fishing is usually the easiest for beginners.
- It is also great to take kids fishing directly after fish have been stocked in a lake or pond. To see a stocking schedule go here.
- Worms on a hook work for almost all fish species. You can buy worms at some gas stations, fishing stores, or at Walmart.
I hope you like my website.
