The Upper Deschutes is the same as the last report. A lot of good whitefish holes, that are perfect for Tightline/Euro Nymph techniques. Fish are eating the heck out of Frenchies, Walts Worms, Perdigons and Rainbow Warriors. Many or most of these fish are going to Whitefish. Repsect the Whitefish. They are a native fish. Brookies and Rainbows are mixed in well and look for some good specimens of both from Crane up to the Blue Hole.
Ants, Beetles, PMD’s and Caddis for when you find a hatch or can prospect the water with a dry fly. A small Purple Chubby with a nymph trailer is a good combo for the upper river.
