The Middle Deschutes is certainly a spot to keep on the list for fishing this week. Consider access from just above Bend, down to Lake Billy Chinook, including areas in the City of Bend, Tumalo area, Lower Bridge and Crooked River Ranch. Mayfly and Caddis hatches are going strong and you should expect a dry fly bite each evening from about 5 to dark. BWO’s #20-22, PMD #16, PED #14, Tan Caddis #16, Black Caddis #18 and Rusty Spinners #16 will match the hatch, Renegades, Purple Haze and small Stimulators will be fun dry flies to explore with and will catch fish too. Expect amazing Euro Nymphing now, especially with Brown Perdigons and CDC Soft Hackle PT’s. Caddis Pupa and Soft Hackles are sure bets at the right time of the pre hatch.
