Jacob Frye's Guide Service – Colusa

Make some memories in Colusa and go fishing with Jacob Frye’s Guide Service. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Jacob is prepared to put you on fish.

These waters are known for Striped Bass, and more – with any luck, you’ll find out for yourself! On these trips, it’s common to troll using light or heavy tackle.

Trips with Jacob Frye’s Guide Service are kid-friendly, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Also, remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

You’ll be casting lines from a 23’ Alumaweld aluminum fishing that holds up to 6 passengers. It has downriggers and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. Your captain will provide rods and reels, along with lures. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. It’s customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Before coming aboard, you may need 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 might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
