Lower Sac: , by Andrew Harris: 4 stars


I had an excellent day on the Lower Sac today with Bruce and Rick from the Diablo Valley Fly Fishers Club.  We fished near Red Bluff and had 10 miles of the river totally to ourselves.  Nymphing was pretty productive in the morning.  Bruce even landed a 16" rainbow on his first drift.  As they day went on we had lots of nymph hookups, a couple of double hookups, and landed fish up to 17".  The afternoon was the highlight though with excellent dry fly fishing for rainbows from 8 to 14".  There was a mixed hatch of PMDs and march browns and the fish were rising freely.  It's rare to be able to drift and fish dry flies on the Lower Sac.  Usually you can do it here and there, maybe two good spots in a day.  Today we spent the last 3 hours of the day fishing dries while on the move and had non-stop action.  A rare treat!
