Middle Deschutes evenings are a fun way to hit some dry fly fishing close to Sisters, Bend or Redmond after dinner. Or after work for us locals. X caddis, purple haze, PMD sparkle dun and rusty spinners are the top 4, although I would tuck a BWO #20 and some soft hackles (yellow #12-16), renegades and float-n-fools in the box too.
Also a wonderful spot to tenkara in the pocket water near Bend.
