The Lower Deschutes is seeing some good and interesting fishing opportunities, but look outside the box for that because fishing 8 am to 4 pm you might miss what I am going to share here.
Last week from about 4 PM to Dusk there were many days of phenomenal Pale Evening Dun Spinners falls, followed by the emerging duns, followed by adults on the water, followed by caddis to dark.
There is also a quality midge hatch going that will bring fish in to the eddies to slurp slurp slurp on Winklers, Palominos and Griffiths Gnats.
Keep an eye on PMD’s too.
Morning and Mid Day you’ll be fishing a lot of Jigs and Perdigons and some Euro Streamers. Look, an indicator rig is fine and you’ll get some fish on that, but the Euro rig allows you to be connected to the drift so much better. It’s the way to go.
