The Upper Deschutes has been fishing better. Dry-dropper setups are a favorite of ours out there. For the top fly a chubby, beetle, or hopper pattern will work while zebra midges, psycho prince’s, and caddis imitations make for good droppers. Stripping streamers around downed timber and some of the undercut banks will also produce fish. 

Suggested Dries: X-Stimulator #12, Black or Tan Elk Hair Caddis #14-18, Black or Tan Foam Caddis #14-18, Purple Haze #14-18, Tilt Wing PMD #14-18, Parachute PMD #14-18, Black Stimulator #14-16, Parachute Adams #14-18, CDC Flying Ant #14-16, Black or Cinnamon Foam Ant #14-16, Hackle Stacker Baetis #16-20, Parachute Baetis #16-20.
