The Middle Deschutes from Bend to Lake Billy Chinook is an excellent morning to noon spot, and after dinner spot. The evening PED and Caddis hatch is reason enough to go. The PMD’s and BWO’s could happen in the AM or the PM, and can offer fine dry fly options.
Euro game is amazing here and can’t be ignored.
