Lower Sacramento Fly Fishing Report

Anthony Carruesco reports on 12.15.2016

The Sac is currently sitting at 5k Cubes and flowing green. We’ve had some very good days out there recently for winter standards. Fish are more concentrated in their winter spots and eating a pretty diverse menu of bugs. Midges, Baetis, PMDs, Caddis, Stones and the round fly are catching quality fish right now. More than anything it’s about putting it in the right spot.. they don’t really like to move very far to eat your fly this time of year. There have been some big fish bending the rods recently. I’m unaware of a more consistent trout fishery for big, wild fish than the Lower Sac. Expect more of the same for the coming weeks.
