Deschutes Steelhead


Well the steelhead fishing has picked up a little but still continues to be tougher then usual for this time of year. We have been finding about 1 fish a day with a few of our guide trips running into a couple a day. The quality of fish has been superb with a lot of two salt fish moving into the system. The photo shows the fish Harley got this morning which was screaming hot. Travis' girlfriend picked up a 12 pounder today and a customer of ours got one around that size a couple nights ago stating "it was the best fish he has ever caught out here." Hopefully the water temperature begins to change soon so more fish will move up into the system. I know that ODFW has received a lot of complaints about the water temperatures and they are currently working with PGE and Oregon DEQ to try to resolve the problem. This does not mean a dramatic change but anything would help at this point.
