July Trout Fishing on the Deschutes

Here are a few photos from the past few weeks of fishing the caddis hatch on the Lower Deschutes.  Hot weather, lots of bugs, and rising trout.  What more do you want?!

Andy Daters lifts one of many trout we spotted rising on a hot July day.

Today's special is roasted caddis served with a trio of crispy fried mayflies.

Hunter Williams getting throttled by a hot redside with a glass rod he made.  First spot of the day!

Heather' first fly caught fish!  She has hooked a few trout on some other rivers so it is ironic that her first landed trout was a badass Deschutes redside!
