Fish Report for 5-20-2023

Lower Deschutes is BLOWN

5-20-2023
The Fly Fishers Place

Major Thunderstorms in Central Oregon on Friday afternoon May 19th has caused a lot of flash flooding and high, fast and very dirty water on the Lower Deschutes.

We will update when the river becomes fishable again and be in touch with guide trip clients to reschedule as necessary.

Super bummed right along with a whole lot of other folks ready to fish one of oregon’s best rivers during one of the most important hatches of the season.

It will get better. Hang in there.
