Deschutes River - Lower - September 7th, 2010
  76°
Madras 3920 CFS
Fishing: Good
Mud Bath

Watch out the white river is erupting right now and kicking in a ton of mud in the Lower Deschutes below Maupin right now. The fishing above there for steelhead should be good right now since the fish aren’t being harassed nearly as much on the lower part of the river due to the conditions. With this cool weather that we are having the white river should start to freeze up/ clear up soon so fishing should be back to normal soon.

The trout fishing from Warmsprings all the way to Maupin has been picking up nicely and there is not many people fishing up there right now. It is mainly nymphing right now with some occasional dry fly fishing in there. The beauty of nymphing for trout this time of season you have a good chance of hooking a steelhead by accident which is great bonus. Some steelhead are starting to show up pretty good on the that whole stretch if you give it a couple more weeks then it should be rolling plenty good by then.

Good Luck and Tight Lines
