We spent the morning chasing big bugs and bug eats and we report back to you, wait to the end to see the results! Things are heating up and the bugs are pairing up and getting active. This is the time of year we all wait for!
Be sure to stop in the shop to get all geared up. We’ve got a large selection of patterns for everything you will need for success as well as all the other fixings you need (7.5FT leader, dry shake, etc), and maybe if you’ve been thinking about it that new dry fly rod.
Our crew is on the water fishing and guiding nearly every day and we will help steer you in the right direction.

We are proud to support Fish Farm Collaborative this evening! NWFFO loves to see how the fly fishing community can make a difference, and we are proud to be a part of helping make a difference too.
We have joined with FFC in bringing the Trout Tour to Portland raising funds for this worthy cause, and we are proud to be here in support tonight.
About Fish Farm Collaborative:
Creating sustainable solutions to Food Insecurity and Preventing Human Trafficking.
Fish Farm Collaborative builds sustainable aquaponic farms that feed families and strengthen communities around the world.
We focus on food insecurity because it is one of the most consistent drivers of vulnerability. When families lack reliable access to food, the risk of exploitation rises. By addressing food insecurity upstream, we help prevent human trafficking before it starts.

Well hello there little fella!
Salmonfly and stonefly season is on its way! This little guy couldn’t help but show his brothers and sisters that it’s close to time, emerging from its shuck.
Stay in tune with what’s happening on the Deschutes River here, we are going to be spending a lot of time over there in the coming weeks and will be doing updates on all our social channels as well as our weekly newsletter.
As you head over to the pass, take a moment to stop and smell the “roads” because the views are spectacular this time of year.
Stop Fishing If You See This: The Future Depends On You
Please Share!
If you see this behavior, these are not fish feeding, these are spawning trout and they should be left alone. The future of our fisheries depends on our diligence to manager our resources.
Help us protect all our native species! With salmonfly season just around the corner these reeds are already popping up, so please just be extra cautious.
If you’re looking to get out for the biggest hatch of the year, we’ve got guides ready to give you the trout fishing experience that will keep you coming back year after year!
With sunny weather last week, E R I C L E I N I N G E R and David went out for some early carp action to see just how early the carp game can start.
Armed with G. Loomis Fly Fishing rod, Hatch Outdoors, Inc reel, and the perfectly paired Scientific Anglers line, and one of Eric’s deadly carp flies, this year’s answer was April 8th.

Big streamers, big eats, big bass
We are already getting our bass season kicked off in the Pacific Northwest with some early pre-spawn action. Water temperatures are only 51°-53°, but the fish are getting heated up for spawn, and it's only going to get better.
Find out what we're loving about the season already, including two of our guides choice rods right now. The Big Game and Arrow have proven to be great sticks this season for big flies, sinking lines and strong spring winds on our big rivers.
Want to chase some big smallies this season? Hit us up and we'll get you in one of our jet boats for an amazing day of predatory eats and big fish.
