Good morning from Sisters, Oregon where we are having a gorgeous and not too hot, nor too smokey summer. Oh sure, a few hotter days here and there, and a couple of smokey days a while ago, but it's been awfully nice for the most part. And the fishing is going great overall throughout the … Continue reading August 5th, 2023 fishing report

Jeff’s fishing report July 14th, 2023
Sorry I missed last week. Not a lot of change from when I wrote the 4th of July report, but I just didn't have the time or the band width last week with a sick dog and some boat motor stuff to deal with. I am back with a new report and have a lot … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report July 14th, 2023

Fishing Reports and Updates for Mid-June 2023
A whole bunch of good stuff to talk about this week, but I will start with the bad news. A strong cold front is sweeping through Central Oregon beginning tonight and the weather on the lakes (anything above 5000 feet) looks atrocious. Snow. Wind. More wind.

Fishing Report and water updates for 4/30/23
Things got a little hairy with water levels over the last few days, and honestly I was wrong in thinking we wouldn't see high water levels on some of our favorite rivers (Crooked and Lower D) because I thought we had the storage capacity to absorb the melt off. Well, the Crooked River is rolling … Continue reading Fishing Report and water updates for 4/30/23
