Deschutes River Anglers specializes in one thing: The Deschutes River Fly Fishing Experience. We know there are other rivers, streams and lakes in central oregon. We’ve fished most of them. And in the end, for us, there is still only one river: The Lower Deschutes. Blue ribbon, native trout and steelhead in a breathtaking canyon where whitewater and wildlife abound! This is the Deschutes.
Time on the river is worth a thousand fish. We’ve spent years finding the Redsides - in the riffles, soft pockets, and in the eddies. Steelhead in the tailouts, classic sweeping bends and inside seams. With the lower Deschutes being 109 miles long...let me just say it helps!
THE PHILOSOPHY: Our boats, your trip.
So you can’t roll cast or tie a nail knot. No big deal. You refuse to nymph. We understand your
stubbornness. No camping gear? No problem! You don’t know jack about etymology. We know
some Latin and it’s friggin’ weird. DRA caters to all skill levels and fly fishing schools of thought.
Our job is to show you skills to help you catch more fish, if you already have the skills, even
better, we just show you where the fish live (or tell us where to pull over, it’s your trip!)
THE TRIPS: One day, One week, One hundred people?
Give us enough time and we can put together any kind of trip you would like. We specialize in
one to five day trips on the lower Deschutes river exclusively (with longer trips absolutely
available!) Everything from BBQ lunches, weather proof canvas wall tents, to flys is taken care
of. See the menu at left for a full description and photos of our camp and services.
FISHING SUMMARY
Its time to get the fishing rods out and get out there, the 2010 season is now officially open and the Lower
Deschutes is a great place to be. The Lower Deschutes should be one of the few good places that is
open and easy to get to since you won’t be able to get to a lot of the high cascade lakes and rivers very early. If you are thinking about doing guided trips this year, booking early is the best way to help
you get the dates and guides that you want.
