Good morning on this 1st morning of July. Summer has been really nice over the last couple of weeks. Not overly hot, that's for sure, with cool nights and mornings the waters around the region are in much better shape than last year at this time when we had that heat dome event over the … Continue reading 4th of July Fishing Report and updates

With lot's of good fishing to report, we are now seeing high 70's, glorious 80's and even some low 90's for a few days over the weekend. Great fishing weather and a welcome pattern for us.

June 11th Fishing Update
I was in the shop this morning working with Brad, as we met the Simms rep for our 2023 Spring Simms order. Outside, horses, llamas fire trucks and rodeo queens rode by for the first time in 2 years for the annual Sisters Rodeo Parade. It was good to see the crowds come out and … Continue reading June 11th Fishing Update

Memorial Day 2022 Fishing Report and Updates
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
