These fish are typical on any given day on the lower Sacramento River. Some of these photos are from the Pit River, the upper Sacramento and Hat Creek. Different places fish better at different times.

Lawnie and Steve

10/27..... Lawnie and Steve made the trek from the bay area for a day of fishing on the lower Sac. It was a bit of a tough day but some nice fish were hooked. The weather was perfect and the river conditions were perfect too. There was the usual weekend boat traffic which didn't help us either. We did two drifts and Steve got on the board early with the beauty picture below.

Steve and this 18 inch rainbow fought long and hard until we finally got the net under him and convinced him to pose with us. We played and lost a few more and had a few 'swing and a miss' moments too. On the evening float we found some really nice fish rising to #14 PMD's and unfortunaly we broke off two big 'bows on the strike.....Oooops! Better luck next time.

Gotta love that waterproof camera. I love releasing fish. Lawnie and Steve are true gentlemen and respected the integrity of the catch and release philosophy.
