Idaho Fish Report

Lower Sacramento hit or miss

3-18-2015

Fishing has been good one day, tough the next. Caddis are coming off from about noon through 2:30 p.m. The best fishing seems to occur within that window, but expect that to change as April approaches and Pink Albert mayflies keep coming off through the late afternoon, keeping the fish interested in eating up until sunset. Big rainbows can be found holding in really shallow water, the kind of rainbows that we can't even get close to under clear conditions. Some truly awesome fish have made it to the net over the past couple weeks. Expect dark patterns in #16 to be top producers. The Fly Shop (530) 222-3555
