DESCHUTES RIVER REPORT

White River Photo Taken on Oct 17th, 2012  8:30am

Well its been a while again since my last post, been busy guiding everyday
Fishing has been tough some days and good the next.
Now that White River is blown out big it might be a while until my next trip!
The river also came up with the White River to almost 7,000 cfs
I would guess it will be tough fishing until Halloween or first of November.

DESCHUTES RIVER REPORT

Well here we are its June already and the Stonefly Hatch has come and gone in the Maupin area.
There has been some crazy windy and wet weather the last few weeks but fishing has been good.
There has been good hatches of PMD,PED,Green Drakes,Yellow Sallies and Caddis.
My best combo has been fishing a dry dropper in the riffles and pocket water.
The dry fly we been using is a Silvey's Chubby Sally #14 with a Silvey's Beadhead Caddis pupae in
Green or Tan.
Late June and July the Caddis hatches start becoming huge and the fish will key on them.
So make sure you carry some Elk Hair Caddis for dries and have plenty of Caddis pupas in green or tan.
