Weather Update and Fishing predictions 2/11/21
Perhaps winter finally arrived today! It started snowing and is pretty cold today. The meteorologists are saying we could get 20 inches or more here in Sisters from today through Sunday, with cold temps from the Polar Vortex just hitting our region a bit (nothing like Montana and the Mid-West). I personally think the fishing … Continue reading Weather Update and Fishing predictions 2/11/21

This coming week of January 10-16 looks warm again. At least warm from a January perspective. Lots of days in the 40's and a couple hitting the 50's coming up. It should be a pleasant week to slip on the waders and be on the water.

Happy Sunday morning. It's 26 degrees right now, and I'm sitting by the wood stove watching the Titans vs Steelers, and thinking about how awesome the last 2 days on the Metolius were for me and my fishing friends. No fishing for me today, because the Pine Needle Piper needs to be paid... and the … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report 10/25/20
