We use many different fly fishing techniques throughout a day of guided fishing.
We love to fish dry flies when the fish are willing to come up. Often times, a
dry/dropper combo is the way to fish the endless pocket water on the Deschutes.
However, we do fish a lot of indicator rigs when they are called for. We also swing
wet flies and occasionally streamers.
Fly Rods:
Rods: 9' to 10' rods in line weights #4, #5, & #6
Reels: Large Arbor with 100 yards of 20lb. backing.
Fly Lines: Weight forward nymph tapers
Tippet: 9' 4x mono leaders, 4x, 5x, &6x Flourocarbon tippet
Indicators: Yarn and foam
Lead: bb shot
Flies: Bead head Copper Johns, Pheasant Tails, Hare's ears, Deep Six Caddis, in
sizes 18-14. Copper Back Stones in sizes 6-4. EZ Caddis, Silveys Caddis, Spent
Caddis in tan and olive, sizes 14-16. PMD emergers and Duns, size 16 & 18. Yellow
Sallys, size 16, Norm Woods Special, sizes 6-4. Parachute Adams sizes 14-16.
Check out our trout flies.
Dressing for the climate:
Summer weather on the Deschutes is typically warm and pleasant. Breathable
waders and felt soled wading boots are a must. Cleats and a wading staff are
advised. You'll want to wear river shorts or layer with lightweight synthetic long
underwear. A Gore-tex shell will keep you warm and dry in the worst of weather. A
full change of clothing stored in a dry bag can save the day in the case of an
unexpected baptism. With that said, bring the sun block... Most days you'll need it.
Wet wading is a great option if the weather gets hot.
