The Middle Deschutes is fishing well in the morning

The Middle Deschutes is fishing well in the morning with Euro Nymphs and some PMD’s, and gets good again in the evening to dusk on X Caddis, Missing Link’s, Yellow Sparkle Duns and Purple Haze. 
Swinging a Yellow Soft Hackle, or greasing it up with Aquel to make it float as a dead drifted emerger is also a good bet. 
I fished the Middle D last night after work and it was really good. I remember waiting on the trail for my friend Chester to come out of the river and join me on a spot we love to fish downstream and as he was walking up the bank he said to me that he never gets tired of fly fishing. I agree. I love the experience, and I’ve never felt burnt out of fishing. I jokingly tell people that Dry Fly Fishing is my religion and any chance I have to see a trout eat a dry, especially during a tricky hatch, I am in 100%.
