Hope everyone has been having a good spring. I just returned from a fun trip to Rufus Woods Lake in northeastern Washington. It’s been on my bucket list for a while and didn’t disappoint! The fishing was fantastic and the weather was perfect.
Our speaker for the June17th meeting will be from Northwest Fly Fishing Outfitters. The presentation will be on fly fishing opportunities in the Mt Hood National Forest; it’s in our backyard and has lots of untapped potential.
We have a GREAT Fish A Long lined up this month. Chris B has generously offered to host a multi day fish a long at his place between Sunriver and LaPine. I am sending an email out with the details; heres a link to the 2024 report.
This coming weekend is Free Fishing Weekend in Washington. Several years ago we had a Fish A Long on the Washington side of Bonneville Dam for Shad. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend but contact me for details (gear, flies & a fishing map). The water level looks good this year!
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 “June” or “July” 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!
