Lot's of good fishing on all the Fly Water. Upper River Golden Stone emergence is still strong, and we have been getting fish up on #14 Tan Caddis, Renegades and #16 PMD's. In the Middle River, the Caddis have been spottier but PMD's have been good. BWO's are coming on between 4 and 7 most … Continue reading Metolius River 7/17/15

WOWZA the Golden Stones are hatching hard around Camp Sherman. PMD's, Caddis and BWO's pretty much in all the river from Tract C to Candle Creek. Spinners at dusk pretty much every night. If you are a good nymph fisherman you can fish anytime, but the main hatches are about noon to 4, and again … Continue reading Metolius River 7/9/15

The very best place in Oregon to beat the heat as far as i'm concerned. I spent the weekend of the 4th fishing every night and found nice caddis hatches and rusty spinners at dark. From friends that had the chance to be on the river all day, they reported PMD's, a mix of Green … Continue reading Metolius River 7/6/15

This hot weather hasn't hurt the Metolius a bit. It might even be helping. Golden Stones are coming out better in the upper river from the Tract C Bridge area down thru Camp Sherman. Green Drakes are still active, and might be good for about another week. PMD hatches have been coming on anytime from … Continue reading Metolius River 6/27/15

I think it's been the best June in a long time. Really decent drake hatches, and even if the hatch is so-so the fish want to eat them late afternoon. PMD's have been good too which results in good rusty spinner falls each evening. I saw some good caddis hatches this week from about 7 … Continue reading Metolius River 6/19/15

The fish are keyed to the Green Drakes from 3 to 5'ish now. Even if the hatch is off or light, the fish want to eat them. Don't overlook the PMDs and Caddis and if you stay late the Rusty Spinner fall is usually strong right at dark. Nymphing is good all day. Upper river … Continue reading Metolius River June 11, 2015

Green Drakes are pretty decent. The Fish seem to be looking for them every afternoon between 3 and 5 regardless of how strong (or not) the hatch is that day. Seems like below Bridge 99 is getting a little better hatch, but they are coming up on them in the hatchery area too. PMD hatches … Continue reading Metolius River

We saw the 1st of the Green Drakes this week coming off about 4 PM. Great PMD hatches from noonish to 3 ish day to day and some baetis too. Besides all those mayfly's there are a good number of Caddis hatching, some in the afternoon and going into the evening on warmer nights. Rusty … Continue reading Metolius River
