Deschutes River Fly Shop and Camp

Nice one from today. Still some big bugs around.. and fishing is good!

The big bugs are out.. and fish are starting to look up!

Nice start to the opener! Beautiful weather, great clients, cooperative fish!

Get ready for the 2026 season! The fly shop's official opening day is April 22nd with the river, but we're happy to accommodate early visitors by appointment. The Crooked River's been fishing well, and we've had plenty of anglers stopping by when the gates open or by calling ahead!

Desperate times.. call for desperate measures. After many, many inquiries, we finally are giving in. We are now carrying worms! I know.. we are a fly shop, and it kinda goes against the grain. But as the sign says.. our worms catch fish.. or they die trying!!

We have been scratching that Stillwater itch with some early season reservoir fishing! More to come with with warming spring weather!
