Steve, a UK native now living in the Bay Area, took a much-needed break to join me on the Lower Sac.  Unfortunately the day started out windy and continued to blow and gust all day.  Wind is not our friend while drift-boat fishing, blowing your line and flies all over the place while making rowing and getting a good drift very difficult.  But we both stuck with it and Steve picked up the necessary techniques quickly and landed some beautiful fish.  Although it was 80 degrees today we are still in "winter mode" on the Sac with very low flows and not a lot of bugs.  It's a quality over quantity game right now.  This will change as we approach spring when the flows go up and the bugs (and fish) become more active.  Still beats sitting on the couch!
