Re: CA RIVER DELTA... WHERE SHOULD I GO?!

First time there, probably best way to get started...check tide tables and try fishing an hr before and through high tide...toss a wacky rigged 6" 925 or 214 senko tight into the tulie pockets and on tulie points....may want to tie on a red or shad colored rattle trap for rock walls and points ...
