East Lake - October 16th, 2012
supplied by: The Flyfishers Place
RECORDED: 
43 °
FISHING: Good
It is big brown time at East. Go Early and fish the shallows with streamers. Once the light hits the water fish the drop offs by the red slide or the cliffs.
Chironomid fishing is good too.
Fish were rising heavily along the White Slide last week but my source wasn't sure to what.

Davis Lake - September 18th, 2012
supplied by: The Patient Angler
RECORDED: 
76 °
FISHING: Good
I took my boat up to Davis Lake to check out some reports I had received from a few customers about some big Rainbows being caught in the Odell Creek end of the lake. I launched the boat and cruised around the lower end of the lake just looking for Bass and Trout for a couple of hours. I spotted a ton of small Bass and a few big ones, but no trout to speak of in the lower lake. I made my way to the Odell end of the lake and found a three boats and a couple of anglers in pontoon boats fishing the channel. I anchored off the side of the channel and rigged up a intermediate sink line with a callibaetis nymph on the end of a 5X leader. I made my first cast and started stripping as soon as my fly hit the water. On the second strip, my line jerked tight and a 24" Rainbow rocketed from the water and landed with a huge splash turning the heads of the other anglers on the lake. It was a beautiful fish, but came unbuttoned as I was reaching for my net. I moved a number of times searching different parts of the channel and hooked a couple more smaller fish. There were a few duns on the water as well as a few spinners, but I didn't have any luck fishing either one on a floating line. I had to cut my day short and get off the lake to head home for a barbecue with friends, But I can't wait to get back up there and try it again. It's been a while since I caught a nice trout on Davis and brought back some great memories of the days long ago when you could catch 10 to 15 trout over 5 pounds in a single day. Ahh...the good old days.

I ran into a guy who is a customer of mine in the East Lake parking lot 2 nights ago who just got off Crane for 4 days. He caught big fish everyday at Quinn. He was fishing leeches and sticklebacks. I also suggest a chironomid.

We've seen some really good dry fly action for small to mid size trout upstream of Pamelia Creek and in the Marion Forks area.
Mostly we are fishing attractor style dries and small caddis.

Rogue River - Upper - August 4th, 2012
supplied by: Roe Outfitters Oregon Guide Klamath Falls Fly Shop

0 °
FISHING: Great
Steelhead fishing is great for both traditional techniques and on the fly. Use stones flies and copper johns.
Salmon fishing is good. You'll have to see day to day what the fish want. Egg patterns or plugs.

Deschutes River - Upper - August 1st, 2012
supplied by: The Flyfishers Place
RECORDED:
82 °
FISHING: Good
Our float from Wickiup to Sunriver area is good. PMD and Caddis hatches are picking up and terrestrial fishing with hoppers and ants is a great bet. I also like 2 attractor dries up here, one is a Lady Di and the other is a Go to Hell Variant. Both cool flies that happen to show some fish some very hot pink attraction.
Streamer fishing is good to great. We recommend a sink tip with a sculpin.
The Headwaters from Little Lava to CP is now VERY high. That happens this time of year as the snow melt in the mountains finally trickled thru the lava aquafer and is coming out thru the lake. I think it is too high to fish and would choose other areas for now.

North Santiam River - July 25th, 2012
supplied by: The Patient Angler
RECORDED:
82 °
FISHING: Good
Jimmy and I got back last night from a couple days on the North Santiam River. The river is running low and clear with a flow of 1,300cfs and a temperature of 55 degrees. We had lots of sunshine, warm daytime temps and cool nights for sleeping.
The fishing seemed a little slower this week, with less action for the time spent on the water and less aggressive fish when we did hook them (no jumps or cartwheels). I must have lost my steelhead mojo on this trip because I hooked three fish and failed to land any of them. Two were on and felt solid with head shakes and taking a some line off the reel before coming unbuttoned. I changed flies thinking maybe there was something funny about the way the old one fished. I don’t normally loose many fish with a solid take on the Owner hook stinger fly.
My last opportunity came just an hour before heading home fishing a wide long cast run. I made a nice cast across, but a little too far up stream and decided to swing it out anyway. So I made a big mend upstream knowing I would have to wait for it to move down stream before mending again to get the swing. Just as I was getting ready to mend again, a steelhead hammered my broadside drifting fly on the run and ripped 30ft of line off my reel in seconds. When he finally stopped on the other bank, I set-up on him again to make sure this one was hooked and fought him back across the river. A short time later I had him just 25ft from me when the hook pulled out and he swam back to the depths of the run. I think I went steelhead hooking instead of steelhead fishing.
Jimmy hooked AND LANDED a nice fish on Wednesday night. We were working through a run and jimmy went back to the top of the run and started a little higher to see if he could find anything in the riffle leading into the run. He wasn’t in there for five minutes before he was yelling Fish On! I made my way back up river and he soon had a nice fish to hand for a quick picture and release.
We had a great time and it’s always good to be on the river for a couple of days.

Big Lava Lake - July 6th, 2012
supplied by: The Flyfishers Place
RECORDED:
84 °
FISHING: Good
Fishing is good at Lava near the resort and over by the springs across the lake. Callibaetis hatches are good. Damsel nymphs, leeches and chironomids are all good. During non hatch periods try an ornage tailed cascade bugger or a minnow bugger on a type 3 line.
