Lower Sac: , by Andrew Harris: Great dry fly fishing: 3 stars

I had a nice day on the Lower Sac today with Dick from Roseville.  There were a lot of other guides out today, but they weren't on our float.  We had the river mostly to ourselves.  We spent a lot of time swinging nymphs with a 5wt spey rod.  That was pretty slow, but we did well with nymphs under indicators.  We spent most of our time from 2:30 on fishing dries.  Dick hooked some very nice fish on dries today.  Our best fly was a size 20 purple haze, which is a purple parachute adams.  We found fish rising in smooth tailouts, choppy riffles and in lanes between weedbeds.  It was a lot of fun!  Some of the fish we hooked on dries were over 16".  The nymphing was a little slow today, but we caught fish on olive micro mayflies, Hogan's golden child, and an egg pattern.  The salmon are just starting on the spawn in the Anderson area.
