The Lower Deschutes from Warm Springs to Trout Creek is another winner. Remember the Warm Springs Reservation side of the river is closed now until 4/22/23 but the section from WS to TC is open until 12/31/22 on all water east of the main channel which includes many (but not all) of the islands to fish.
Swing a leech or intruder for steelhead on a sink tip, or nymph with Double Bead Cheeseburgers and October Caddis and Girdle Bugs with a dropper of a Pink Bead Walt’s, Perdigon and Squirmy Worm.
The Maupin area is also a good and remember that beyond the boundary of the WS Reservation the Lower Deschutes is Open year round.
