The Upper Deschutes just opened up last weekend and we’re super excited. There could still be a few straggling spawners so look out for the redds. There has been word of a few green drake hatches alongside blue wing olives and midges. Dry dropper fishing with a chubby or terrestrial pattern can be great. For nymphs, try out baetis nymphs, midge pupa, small caddis pupa and small stone flies. The brookies love hanging out around the undercut banks. Drifting a nymph rig past the undercut can be quite effective but small streamers are often the easiest to get under the bank. We have so many awesome days on the upper to look forward to.
