The Lower Deschutes from Warm Springs to Trout Creek has been fishing well, and the magic hour before dark is worth staying for if you want to see the best dry fly activity of the day. You can also fish to rising trout in the back eddies mid-day and possibly find caddis hatches around shallow weed beds later afternoon and spent caddis in the morning for dry fly action too. Pale Morning Duns #16 are mixed with #12-14 Pale Evening Duns in the Evening. Yellow Sparkle Duns and Purple Haze #14-16 will likely serve you just fine, but add some Yellow Soft Hackles and Film Critics too.
Nymph fishing with an indicator, or Euro style or swinging with a trout spey is all great.
Have you tried a trout spey yet? A good way to try one is to book a trip with Troy, Steve and Tonn who all incorporate this to their days on the water here.
