Fishing Reports

We are just opening Canyon Creek Ranch for the season and recently stocked it with trophy rainbows! We've already fished it about 2 weeks ago and the fish were really turning on then.
Book now for Spring! This is going to be a red-hot fishery this season.
Guided and unguided trips are available starting at $125 per person.

The most consistent fishing is on Nymphs using a golden stone with a small dropper. We are also seeing BWO and cinygmula hatches and expect these to get much stronger as we move towards the end of the month.
Bull Trout are active and will take a streamer although most are being caught on nymphs now.

The Fall continues to be a great choice for late winter and early spring. Good hatches and generally cooperative (sometimes very picky & selective) fish.
Also try tungsten bead nymphs and even streamers for results.

We have begun the guide season in Maupin for 2010 and it is nice to be back on the river!
We're seeing March Browns and Baetis hatches and picking up some fish on dries.
Stonefly Nymphs, Buggers and serendipity, green rock worms & copper johns are al fishing well.

The Water is still pretty high and will be until mid April, but if you poke around you'll find some good fishing from Bend down to Lake Billy Chinook.
March Browns, BWO, Skawla's and Midges are the most important hatches but look for small dark caddis to be hatching too and getting more prolific in the next month.
Nymphs and Streamers are great bets when the water is high.

Most days are producing good BWO hatches along with midges. WHen the hatch isn't on we've had good fishing with Nymphs under an indicator or trailed behind an attactor dry. Water conditions are very nice and I don't anticipate seeing high water this spring with such a low snowpack.
