The Fall River has been fishing fair. We have heard a few reports recently of low numbers of fish in the river but ODFW is set to stock it next week so that will help out. Fishing a dry-dropper setup with a beetle/ant pattern or a small chubby variation with a two-bit or similar small mayfly pattern has been effective. Swinging streamers and stripping them around some of the downed timber is a fun way to target some larger trout. The fish are spread out right now all the way from the headwaters to the confluence with the deschutes so it may pay off to explore some spots you haven’t before.
