I just spent a really fun day with father/son duo Kent and Sam on the Lower Sac today.  Sam figured out the casting, mending, and hook-setting techniques very quickly.  He landed his first rainbow about 30 minutes into the trip!  It was a beautiful fall day and we spent it catching wild rainbow trout and enjoying the scenery along the river.  FYI there are still plenty of salmon on redds and I'm seeing new redds every week.  We landed about half of our fish on egg patterns and the rest on smaller mayfly nymphs.
