Pollard Gulch Fishing Access offers a paved parking area with restrooms and vehicle access via Exit 712 off I-5, providing shoreline launch for rafts and kayaks on the Sacramento River.

The site features medium-velocity water with a small eddy on river-right and is suitable for fishing and water-contact recreation, though the swift current is too strong for boom deployment.

Cell service (Verizon) is available, and a Union Pacific Railroad bridge crosses immediately upstream of the main access point.
