Spend the day with Trophy Catcher Guide Service and get hooked on fishing in Granite Bay! Your guide for the day is Captain Rudy, which means you’ll tap into years of knowledge and experience.
 
Expect to target Rainbow Trout and King Salmon. For these species, you’re likely to use light tackle. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep.

You’ll be dropping lines from an 18’ Walkaround that can carry up to 3 passengers. It comes with downriggers and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Rudy will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures.

Before coming aboard, you may be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

You can’t go wrong when you bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but avoid hard liquor and glass bottles. Lunch is provided. Reach out to learn more, especially if you have any dietary needs.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Trophy Catcher Guide Service!

Rudy Rules
Full Day Trip on July 2, 20252 adults
I usually don’t write comments but Rudy gave my daughter and I an absolutely perfect fishing day. We caught a lot of beautiful fish including a few King Salmons (one very big) and rainbow trout. It didn’t look like anyone else on the lake caught any fish. We took a celebration swim in the end while he filleted the fish. He really knows where the fish are, what they like and has top notch gear to get the job done. He’s also a pleasure to spend the day with. I’d highly recommend Rudy.

Full Day Trip on July 11, 20251 adult1 child
A few things become obvious within your first hour on Rudy's boat: this guy loves fishing, is great at what he does, and he knows Folsom Lake. My son and I spent a great day fishing with Rudy and even as it approached 90 degrees around 10 o'clock, he was always working to find us the fish..Highly recommended and will definitely be back.

Rudy is the best. I have fished with many other guides all over. In and out of the USA. Rudy made the trip I don’t write reviews this is the first one I have ever done but, Rudy is just too good of a guide not to let others know about him. I highly recommend him the best I have ever fished with with
