Fishing the Brickners

This past weekend I celebrated the 4th of July with Kurt and Sarah Brickner.  We had an awesome trip on the river.  We saw 2 other anglers in 3 days!  The fish where mildly responsive at the front end of the trip.  As the weather heated up the fishing got a lot better.  Kurt had an epic day on the 4th.  Thanks for a great trip.

Fly fishing report for the Lower Deschutes

This week will mark the end of the 2010 stone fly hatch on the Lower Deschutes River.  This year's hatch was very unique... it started early and ended late.  This has been the longest time we've thrown adult dry flies and caught fish... May 13th - June 20th!  Here are is a photo from our last trip...

Antone Ranch

The Deschutes River blew us off the river this week... bummer!  We where looking forward to having great fishing with the Elliot group... settled for a day on Buckhorn instead... fishing there was great!

The next trip we rescheduled to Antone Ranch!  Have you heard of this place?  45,000 acres.  5 lakes.  lots of giant fish.  Beautiful.  We camped at the edge of Rock Lake, the largest lake on the ranch... it happened to have tons of beautiful fish in it.  Check out this photo of the trophy's trophy from High Lake!  Damn!
