Default Fishing near Bend, OR
wrote:

Current plan is to come from Medford then Bend then Sisters before
heading back to Portland. Fishing isn't the primary purpose, but
I'm getting too old to climb/hike every day so I'll have some extra
time in each of those locations.

Suggestions?

The Crooked is not fishing at all well this year. Best bets for stream
fishing are the Fall River, Upper or Middle Deschutes, and the Metolius.
Any of the many fly shops in Bend can give you up-to-the-minute info;
the expert on the Metolius, though, is Jeff Perrin at The Fly Fisher's
Place in Sisters. Of the lakes, East seems to be fishing best. If
you're interested, ping me here and I could show you some spots on
Thursday or Friday.
