It's my 3rd day back from vacation, and 2 days ago I felt more qualified to tell you the report for Lakes and Rivers in Tasmania than here at home, but I have been catching up fast, talking to my guides and my good fishing friends and have some good things to report. Had some … Continue reading March 5th Fishing Update

We need snow and we need rain, but for the moment our winter has been pretty dry and mild. We keep looking at 4, 7, 10 and even 15 to 30 days forecasts and we hope like hell the snow piles up in our mountains soon so our lakes fill beautifully next summer and our … Continue reading Fishing Report for 1/10/18

The roads are clear, there is little to no snow on most of the rivers and fishing is fair to good on the big 4. So here's the … Continue reading (Almost) New Year’s fishing report

This is closed to protect spawning fish and has been a big help in creating the wild trout fishery the river has become … Continue reading Metolius fishing report 11/2/17

Its a big enough river to absorb that small percentage of flow to not be too noticeable . It was … Continue reading Metolius River fishing report 10/24/17

They keep coming. October 13th and the hatch was strong with both #10 drakes and #14 flav's mixed with PMD and BWO this afternoon. Timmy (one of our guides) just is off the river. We love it!

We sure have some good autumn weather in the Sisters area today and we love it. Afternoon mayfly hatches are rocking! As are October Caddis. PMD's are not done yet but they are mixing in with our other yellow fall mayfly, the cinygmula. No worries, as the same fly patterns are a good match for … Continue reading Metolius River fishing report 10/12/17
