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
Paulina Lake update 5/16/22
I’m parked at the viewpoint just down from the lakes. It is a spot where I frequently stop to either send a text, or email or tune in the MLB Network so we can listen to a baseball game driving home from fishing. It’s a handy viewpoint! Paulina is indeed ice free. There were 4 … Continue reading Paulina Lake update 5/16/22
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

Jeff’s fishing report/update 10/11/21
Hello on a cool, breezy October Monday. Monday? I know, it's late and I apologize. I had guide trips over the weekend and just didn't have time to blog until now. There is plenty to talk about, including an apology on my part for not choosing the best way to express myself on some frustrations … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report/update 10/11/21
Jeff’s fishing report and more (10/2/21)
It's Folk Festival weekend in Sisters. I got home from my guide trip last night and we headed out on the town to listen to some great music. All the town is a stage and it feels vibrant and good here. We are lucky. We are also lucky to have so much good fishing here, … Continue reading Jeff’s fishing report and more (10/2/21)
Fishing Report 9/25/2021
How many more of these days will we get in 2021? It is perfect, but the winds of change are blowing in soon it looks like. We will take anything we get and we will fish in anything we get. The Metolius is still getting a good afternoon Green Drake hatch, mostly in a size … Continue reading Fishing Report 9/25/2021
Fishing Report 9/19/21
If you're from Oregon and felt the full blast of fall weather hit us this weekend, and with essentially a month and half left of general trout season, it feels like it is speeding to an end. In so many ways, that "end" never matters, because of all of the places that are open year … Continue reading Fishing Report 9/19/21
