The Lower Deschutes is ramping up with October Caddis hatches lighting up the afternoons and evenings. Stonefly nymphs paired with Perdigons or two-bits are productive, delivering consistent action on the trout front. Steelhead are also making their way upstream, and now is a prime time to target them. Sink tips with intruder-style streamers are the go-to setup for steelhead, though floating lines are still getting results on warmer days. October is a peak time for steelhead trips, so book your spots soon.
