The Lower Deschutes is fair to good for trout and some steelhead are being found. October is a great month to fish the Lower River and with increasing October Caddis hatches, more stone nymphs in the drift, salmon spawning, mayfly hatches and drifting nymphs and even midges and micro caddis in the eddies there is a lot to look out for there. By a long shot, our FFP guide team are hooking most of the fish on Euro Nymphs now. Trout Spey with streamers, sculpins and crayfish is fun and effective.
