Good morning from beautiful Sisters, Oregon. We woke up at home, which was unplanned as we had intended to camp on the Metolius for a few nights. But camping in the rain is not a ton of fun, especially in a small trailer with dogs. So hopefully next weekend we will get to the river … Continue reading Memorial Day 2022 Fishing Report and Updates

An exciting fishing report 5/21/2022
Here we are, May 21st and it's been a weird start to the fishing season since April. Mostly due to snow up in the lakes and wind and cold weather down on the rivers. Is that about to change? For a while it looks like and that is why I think this is going to … Continue reading An exciting fishing report 5/21/2022
Jeff’s fishing report 5/15/2022
First off, I am sorry I missed a week. I was in Mexico catching baby tarpon and when I got home I honestly felt like I didn't have enough information to provide a good and accurate report. Now, having been home for a week, getting some time on the water, and time in the fly … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report 5/15/2022
Fly Fisher’s Update 4/30/22
April came and went (almost) with a lot of blessings and luck. We are now sitting at 103% in the Deschutes Basin and 142% for the McKenzie. Some delayed openings (pushed back to more of what we will call normal) on some high lakes, but we will take that with glee, joy, answered prayers and … Continue reading Fly Fisher’s Update 4/30/22
Opening Day “Crystal Ball” projections 4/22/22
I don't actually have a Crystal Ball. Damnit. Opening day for so many of us is kind of like Christmas. It's a gift. A change of season. A day to begin a season with a lot to look forward to. With the gift Mother Nature has given over the last two weeks, it is clear … Continue reading Opening Day “Crystal Ball” projections 4/22/22
Brrrrr, Fishing in snowflakes update 4/10/22
Good morning. If you're reading this from the Pacific NW you are likely drinking your coffee and wearing a sweater today. I've even got a stocking hat on and I am inside. I guess I need to get the wood stove going again. This is the 2nd weekend in a row that Oregon mountains are … Continue reading Brrrrr, Fishing in snowflakes update 4/10/22
Jeff’s fishing update 4/3/22
Good Sunday morning to everyone. Right now in Sisters it is the calm before the storm, as it looks like by tonight we are in for a good storm, especially hitting the mountains with a much needed late season dump of snow. Today is going to be a great day, but Monday is going to … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing update 4/3/22
February 2022 Fishing Report
Well, like with so many things, this winter is a blessing and a curse. I was so excited about our summer with water being more abundant after weeks and weeks of storms back in December and at the New Year. Then, January was one of the driest and warmest on record, and we went from … Continue reading February 2022 Fishing Report
Jeff’s fishing report 12/6/2021
it is looking more like a proper December, with the forecast showing some days with rain drops and snow flakes instead of nearly 70 degrees like we had just a few days ago. I say bring it on! It's good for the fishing this time of year. BWO's that hatch in the winter months are … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report 12/6/2021
Fishing Report and Updates for 10/29/21
Good afternoon, I am home tying up loose ends, doing my last big orders for the 2022 upcoming season and getting ready to hop on a plane and go fishing in Mexico. I was out a few days this week locally, and the FFP guide team is still busy all over the waters here. It … Continue reading Fishing Report and Updates for 10/29/21
