This section includes the popular brown trout fishery below Wickiup Reservoir and brook trout fishery between Crane Prairie and Little Lava Lake. Anglers report excellent fishing for mountain whitefish, brook trout and redband trout from Crane Prairie to the headwaters. Pale Morning Dun and Caddis are primary hatches in July with dry fly opportunities most afternoons. Anglers should also stock up with ant and micro-hopper patterns. Fishing between Wickiup Dam and Pringle Falls has been productive for large brown trout. Following the wet winter and spring, mosquitos are out in full force on the Upper Deschutes, especially near the headwaters, and anglers should come prepared.
