Trout are Oregon's number one game fish. It's also the fish that got me hooked on fly fishing. A rising trout to a dry fly is the epitome of the sport. However, we can utilize other presentation methods during our day on the water.

I target the McKenzie and Deschutes Rivers by drift boat.

Timing: Trout are available all year long in Oregon. The famous Salmonfly hatch on the Deschutes is from mid May to early June.

Techniques: Fly only. Specializing in dry fly and trout spey, but will utilize all other presentations.

Opportunities: Sadly, I can no longer guide you on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation. Unfortunately the tribe has changed their sub-contractor regulations.
