The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

Spent the last three days on the Upper Sac, Upper McCloud, and Squaw Valley Creek. Beautiful weather, lots of October caddis, but no one I spoke with saw a fish rise to one. I did catch quite a few using imitations, though. Nice trip all in all. Maybe the most enjoyable aspect was the conversations I had with folks, from Bob Grace at Ted Fay Fly Shop, to a guy from Oregon fishing Cantara for the first time in 50 years, to a nice couple from the Bay Area. She'd just started fly fishing, definitely has the bug.

Ran across an interesting stranger at Prospect access. This stranger knew instinctively that I post on this board, not the one that has all the guys who favor his/her species. Not to name names, of course.

So a couple of pics--beautiful day at Prospect, and the mysterious stranger who was hanging out.

Pics were too big--now smaller.

And the other.

Nice report Andrew....I'll have to get up to the Upper Sac
sometime. It's been YEARS. If I go all that way, I just
can't go near the Pit without fishing it. Although I should
fish the Upper Sac after a day on the Pit since I typically
feel like I've been beat with a few baseball bat after Pit'in.

Not one October Caddis seen on the Pit last weekend.
Did see a few Iso's though.
