The
dog days of summer will soon be a memory and come
October it will be time for our annual 4-day fishout on
the Upper Sac at Dunsmuir. We have again selected the
second weekend in the month, and once again, Bill
Carnazzo has graciously agreed to present his popular
Short-Line Nymphing Clinic on Saturday morning.
Last
year, the first three members to practice the nymphing technique
immediately after Bill’s instruction hooked and landed a
very nice fish on their second if not first cast. All
told, the weekend was productive for all members with
some landing crazy numbers of fish in the park. October
is “prime time” on this Blue Ribbon Freestone trout
stream, and fishing can be at its best. Trout average
12” but can reach over 20” with some Browns.
Weather can
be variable in October, ranging from warm to light rain,
so plan accordingly. We will have the usual dinner
get-togethers at local restaurants for the first three
nights for those interested.
There is no charge for
this fishout, and details of time and place for all
activities will be forth coming on the web site. Since
there is virtually unlimited river access for miles
above and below Dunsmuir, there is no limit on
attendance. A signup sheet will be available at the
August, September, and October meetings.
