About Guide Jerry Frye:Jerry Frye, owner and operator of Fryes Fishing, is a seasoned Sacramento River fishing guide and a native of northern California.

He quickly discovered his natural talent for catching fish and developed a passion for sharing his skills and knowledge with others. In 2000, Jerry decided to start a part-time guiding business to offer his expertise to fellow fishing enthusiasts. Over the years, he honed his craft, and in 2012, he retired from his day job to become a full-time guide. Now, he leads fishing trips along the Sacramento and Trinity Rivers, helping visitors target some of the region's most prized fish, including King salmon, Pacific steelhead, Pacific stripers, and Tailwater Trophy Rainbow trout.
