It's been wet and wild for a lot of the winter, which at times has made it tricky to find places to fish. Finally the weather is getting nice, rivers levels are starting to drop and fish should be plenty hungry.

One Week from today (April 22) the entire Lower Deschutes River will be open for business. Hatches early season tend to happen mid day. If the weather stays nice watch for some caddis flying around. If the clouds show up look for BWO's and some left over March Browns. Otherwise your best bet will be nymphing with your favorite stonefly pattern in the riffles.

Good luck out there.
