A Steelheaders Dream

Capt. Cory Godell
September 2, 2015
Bend - Freshwater Fishing Report

Deschutes River

Steelhead
Here's the plain and simple of whats happening on the Deschutes. The waters is clearing the days are getting shorter and the weather is cooling and is partly cloudy. And if that's not good enough for you, there seems to be quite a few fish in the river and they are on the bite. What more could any steelheader want. With Deschutes running colder than the Columbia River a good chunk of the steelhead heading up the Columbia are turning their noses into the Deschutes to cool down. This is a good thing, because it puts more steelhead in the Deschutes which increases our chases of hooking one of these amazing fish.

Trout
The cooler weather that has hit us the past couple of days has slowed the trout fishing. Even though the fishing has slowed there still plenty of fish to be caught. We were on the river yesterday and we were the only fishing boat on the upper 10 miles of the river.

John Day River

That's a wrap for another season of Smallmouth Bass for us on the John Day. Even though it was a low water year we were able to do trips through August. The nice thing about the low water was it was like fishing for fish in a barrel. We will be back over on the John Day starting in November chasing steelhead.

See you on the River
