It’s been a cool & wet spring, making stream fishing challenging with much higher than usual flows. Given this I’ve been hitting the OFC lakes, which are coming to life as the water warms. Eventually our local streams will drop putting spring trout fishing and steelhead fishing back on the menu.
Our April 15th meeting at High Rocks will feature the always popular Garrett Lesko. His presentation targets fishing Diamond Lake in southern Oregon (pic above), a timely subject for the Central Oregon Lakes Fish A Long in June.
We will probably have to cancel our April 19th Fish A Long. I’ll be out of town and we don’t have anyone else to run the Fish A Long. On the good side, there is plenty of fishing opportunities in April. Check out our website for ideas.
Another reminder that Marty & Mia Sheppard of Little Creek Outfitters are resurrecting the Sandy River Spey Clave. Mark your calendars for May 9th & 10th at Oxbow Park.
For several years now we have been posting monthly fishing reports. Looking back on them is a fun way to get ideas for local fly-fishing opportunities currently happening or coming up. Type “March” or “April” and you’ll get all the past reports for that month.
Please remember our local fly shops and sporting goods stores. Hope to see you at a meeting or on the water!
