Cascade Lakes
The Cascade Lakes offer great fishing throughout the season. At Crane Prairie you might hook the largest Rainbow of your life on a Chironomid under an indicator. East Lake offers amazing Callibaetis action all season. Davis is a tremendous Largemouth Bass fishery. Lava Lake and Little Lava are frequently all-stars and Hosmer is a unique fishery for Atlantic Salmon and Brook Trout that every angler should experience.
In addition to the above lakes, the Fly Fisher's Place also offers trips to Trail Bridge Reservoir and Clear Lake. Both of these fisheries are close to the shop and can offer good spring, summer and fall fishing.
The Fly Fisher's Place is just 16 miles from the popular Three Creeks Lake on the boundary of the 3 Sisters Wilderness. While we don't guide here, we fish it often and keep up to date on hatches and conditions for you. We stock all the hot lake patterns no matter where you are heading.
We've mentioned quite a few local lakes but we're not even scratching the surface on how many lakes there are in this region. If you are a backpacker, we have a lifetime of opportunities here. For others, a drive to a beautiful mountain lake for float tubing might be just right, where other anglers might be looking for a larger reservoir to launch their fishing boat. Central Oregon really has it all!
Plus, don't forget about the desert lakes in the Spring and Fall! They can be your hottest fishing opportunities in the early season and again in October while everyone else is chasing Steelhead or Deer.
The Fly Fisher's Place offers trips on Trail Bridge Reservoir and Clear Lake under special use permit on the Willamette National Forest and is an equal opportunity recreation provider.
