The McKenzie River was good for our guides this week. I know Troy, Micheal, Eric and Gavin were all down there and had good success, and depending on the day, some with various dry flies like chubbies, and McKenzie Caddis and running nymphs as a trailer. The guides have been using Walt’s Worms, baby got bead, frenchie, copper john, perdigons, leeches and caddis pupa. 
The rains have bumped the flows from 1800 to 2000’ish and that is a welcome thing for the bottom of our drift boats (hahaha) 
I am encouraged by the river holding up to a decent flow so far and hope we can have continued good float trip conditions all summer until the rains come this fall.
