Lower Sac: , by Luke Geraty: The Conditions were... TROUTY!: 4 stars

Though it's the middle of October, the weather could hardly be much better. Sunny and only a little wind here and there, today's trip was hard to top. Today's guests were a father and son team, both named Chris, so we came up with the super creative "Front" Chris and "Back" Chris, ha ha! Though blood is thicker than water, these two had one of the most entertainingly competative relationships I've experienced and it only took a few minutes to figure out that we were going to have a lot of fun. "How was the fishing?" you ask... it was great! We hooked three fish in the first five minutes and then continued to hook fish, land fish, lose fish, hook some more fish, give each other a hard time for losing said fish, put a few more in the net, and shared a LOT of laughs. There were only a few times during the day where I'd say, "Hmm... seems like it might have slowed down" But then, almost on que, we'd get a grab. We saw a TON of salmon and the fish are definitely starting to key in on the eggs. We caught a couple on a rubber legs and some other nymphs but the majority were on the good 'ole egg. A couple highlights from the day were when we hooked a couple BIG fish and, sadly, lost them. But that wasn't the highlight. The highlight was listening to them give each other such a hard time for doing "everything" wrong - ha ha! Seriously though... today was such a great day. They were great anglers and the fishing was great. Plus, we hardly saw any boats on our float. I don't have any open dates this month except on Oct. 23, but the Trinity is right around the corner and I imagine the fishing will continue to be awesome in November too! If you want to get out soon or next month, hit us up at www.confluenceoutfitters.com and book a day today!
