When you go fishing, it’s not just about filling up the cooler. You want to have a great time, be safe, maybe meet some fellow anglers, and create fishing memories that will last a lifetime. All of this and more is awaiting you when you book with Northern California Guide Service. Captain Robert Weese has decades of experience and is excited to get you out on the water and start catching fish.
From the get-go, you’ll feel close to the action in the 2017 24’ Alumaweld Jet boat, custom built to get the maximum out of the rivers that Capt. Robert fishes. Powered by a 400 HP Chevrolet engine, you’ll be at the fishing grounds before you know it.
Once there, all 6 anglers can begin to fish simultaneously. Even if someone is fly fishing, you can still all fish at once! This is perfect for team buildings and family vacations. If you’re fly fishing, please bring your gear from home.
The boat is fully equipped with safety and navigational equipment, as well as features that will give you that extra edge out on the water. This includes a wireless trolling motor to sneak up on the fish, and a live bait tank to keep your bait fresh and ready to go.
The best time to come for Striped Bass is between April and May, although you’ll still find some numbers in the river from March through to August. Sturgeon and Rainbow Trout can be caught year round, but King Salmon can only be caught from July 16 through to mid-December.
There are G Loomis and Shimano rods and reels included in the price. Live bait will be prepared for you before the day. Please bring along your own food and drink and a valid fishing license.
Children are welcome. If they aren’t fishing and are under 5, they can come along for free. Let the captain know in advance so he can prepare the life vests.
Capt. Robert of Northern California Guide Service is looking forward to welcoming you aboard for an awesome day of fishing.

We will never forget this awesome and memorable trip! Thanks so much Captain Robert, and we'll be back for more!!

We had the full day trip with Robert. He was an incredible guide. We originally booked a trip to catch salmon but it wasn’t looking so great since we weren’t getting any action out on the water. He knew we just wanted to catch something to make our trip worth it so he took us to a popular spot to catch some trout. He gave us lots of tips and provided us with great memories. Would highly recommend him if you’re looking for a guide with lots of experience.

Captain Robert was the best! We started with a fishing lesson and worked our way up to catching a few stripped bass. Captain Robert was organized, patient, and made the trip memorable. We recommend Time on the river fishing with Captain Robert any time!! Denise and Frank
