The McKenzie has been really quite good for the FFP guides and flows have been a touch high, but very fishable regardless of that. Why do I always mention FFP on this part of the report? Other than them, when I am hanging at the shop I just don’t talk to many private boaters/anglers coming or going to the Mac. So I rely on Steve, Troy, Adam, Ben, Tonn and Eric to keep us at the shop in the loop there.
Chubbies, Parachute Adams, Light Cahill’s, Jigs, Mega Prince, Possie Bugger, larger olive or orange perdigons, and Caddis in every stage will cover you. It’s such a fun river, I need to get one of the guides to take me and Tina down there again soon. I personally haven’t been since the fire.
