A friend said that he was going out to the Deschutes to fish the Salmon Fly hatch which he said was under way. It seems a bit early and I thought that the water was still pretty high.
We were on the river last Saturday between Warm Springs and Trout Creek. We did not spy a single adult salmon or golden stone fly the entire trip. Fish were keyed on the the big nymphs though.
