Over on the McKenzie River the guides are having some good days with our customers and catching a mix of wild and hatchery trout, mostly on nymphs and little streamers and leeches.
I talked to the guide team today about water levels and how it’s holding up, and while it is low they are all content to run safely down our normal sections and feel like we don’t need to pivot further down river.
Some customers are going over and finding decent to good walk and wade fishing in the upper river along the trail, especially near Deer Creek. If you do this, make sure to bring a wading staff and studded boots and your 10′ or 10 1/2′ 3 or 4 weight with a good selection of euro jigs. This is also a good place to dry/dropper and find hatches of a myriad of stones, mayflies and caddis.
