The Lower Deschutes through the Maupin area runs (Nena to Wapinitia and Maupin to Mack’s) is fishing well as per Aaron’s reports. He is fishing heavy beaded Euro nymphs with a ton of success.
March Brown hatches should be pretty peak next week and for the rest of the month. Mix some Caddis and BWO’s in and there ought to be some good emerger and dry fly fishing to be had on the lower D.
Don’t forget your Stonefly nymphs, Streamers and Leeches. Euro, Indicator, Swinging, Trout Spey, Dry Fly….Deschutes in the spring is like that. Go get em.
Also, don’t forget the Warm Springs, Mecca, Dry Creek, Trout Creek and South Jct access points are closed until April 22.
