Fall on the Deschutes River, 2019
It’s always a bittersweet time of year. I always look forward to being on the river, especially the Deschutes River in the fall. But, it means the fishing season is coming to a close. Shorter days and closures are in the future. In the meantime, fall brings the chance for a steelhead, and the trout are feasting as the fall insects hatch.
I was lucky enough to get on the river three times this fall. Two shorter trips in September and then a longer one in October. In the end there were few steelhead in the river and none on the line. Oh well, the trout, the wildlife and the views were all top notch.
