Lower Sac: , by Andrew Harris: swing/dry fly program: 3 stars We fished the lower river today. My clients Russ & Bob are headed for B.C. in the fall and wanted to get some more spey casting under the belt before their trip. We fished 7 and 8 weight spey rods to get familiar with the rods they would use in B.C., then scaled down to 4 and 5wt spey rods for trout fishing. The grab wasn't great, but we did swing up some fish on various nymph patterns. We spent a lot of time in the afternoon dry fly fishing. Our best fish was a 17" rainbow on a pheasant tail nymph fished 2ft under a grasshopper dry. We had a ton of dry fly grabs on parachute adams and landed fish up to about 12" on dries. Pretty fun stuff! Next 10 open days for Andrew Harris: |
