Deschutes River Steelhead Fishing

Last week we (the DCO crew) headed down the lower Lower Deschutes.  As a group, we had never floated the section from Mack's Canyon to Heritage Landing - the Colombia.  Our target was steelhead, and we wanted to check out the warm water reports we had been hearing.

We found fish.  8 to be exact.  6 fish came to our surface patterns.  Only 2 where landed.  Not bad since we only fished from first light to 11 am.  Water temps where a bit high, but not unfishable.

All and all, it was a great trip.  We look forward to the next adventure to that part of the river.
