The Upper Deschutes has been fishing fair. Nymphing with heavier tungsten flies or using some split shot to get your flies down is beneficial. Jimmy legs, two-bits, nitro caddis, rainbow warriors, and psycho princes are some of our favorites. Stripping or dead drifting streamers around some of the undercuts and downed timber is a good way to target some larger fish. The Upper is a gorgeous place to spend a day so get out there and get after some fish.
