Welcome to Your Fishing Community Connection!

If you, your spouse, fishing buddies, or business associates are interested in fishing and enjoy the camaraderie of other fishing-folks, join the Rooster Tails Fishing Club of Northern California, Inc. An easy and fun way to check-out our 30+ year old, non-profit fishing organization of over 200 men & women, is by attending our regular third Friday breakfast meetings that are open to the public. Reservations are not required, just show-up at the Auburn Elks Lodge building, 195 Pine Street at Lincoln Way, Auburn, 95603, at 7:00 a.m. Free hot coffee will waiting for you with a buffet breakfast served at 8:00 a.m. It is a great time to share fishing stories and hear the best guest speakers at 9:00 a.m. for a half-hour presentation on fishing related subjects. We provide members and their guests an opportunity to learn about various fishing techniques on a variety of both fresh and salt waters unlike bass or fly-fishing clubs that limit fishing techniques. Both novice and expert anglers are welcome and owning a fishing boat is not a requirement to become a club member. A password protected Members-Only tab on our web site is organized by home-town, to coordinate fishing partners, car-pooling to club organized events and general communication between members.

Additional information is available by email to info@roostertailsfishingclub.org or USPO mail to RTFC, P.O. Box 7441, Auburn, CA 95604.

Message from the Board of Directors - June 2026

Greetings Rooster Tails!

Thank you to everyone who is coming out to our monthly breakfast meetings! It’s good to see everyone enjoying our speakers and the camaraderie the gatherings provide. We strive to put on a meeting that will both entertain and educate members and guests on fishing in our area, and beyond! The Board also presents a website and monthly newsletter for members and we wish to hear your comments and suggestions regarding our content. Please let us know your thoughts on our efforts by sending comments/suggestions to info@roostertailsfishingclub.org

Also, we are looking for someone to help out with the production of the newsletters and maintenance of the website. Computer experience and a willingness to learn is all that is really required. It’s a great opportunity to not only support your organization but to learn more about fishing issues in your neighborhood. Let us know your interest by sending a message to info@roostertailsfishingclub.org. We look forward to hearing from you.

The Board would also like your suggestions on speakers or topics for future meetings. Contact us at info@roostertailsfishingclub.org with your comments. Jerry Lampkin of TNG Guide Service will be this month’s speaker, graciously filling in when our scheduled speaker cancelled. Jerry will be sharing information on fishing on the Klamath River. With the removal of the dams and the opening of salmon seasons, this should be an interesting presentation.
