I'm planning to get a couple of days in Bend and might get a chance to fish
the Fall River. I've fished the upper parts a couple of times, from it's origin to the bridge at Rt#4360/W.River Rd. with limited success, mostly small fish. Is the lower section, below the falls, a better bet? Gene |

Many years ago, I hooked some big fish at the base of the falls, fishing
deep and in the early morning. Other than at that location, I've not hooked any fish of much size. Then again, it's been years since I fished the Fall River near Bend. There are so many areas to fish in and around that area that you should be able to find fish somewhere...i.e. the lakes or other rivers. Barry "Gene Cottrell" wrote in message ...

I missed this first time around. A few years ago there was a total fish kill downstream of the hatchery when a load of fire retardant was accidentally dropped in the river. It's coming back well, though. You won't yet find browns as big as they were before the accident, but there is pretty good fishing down there nevertheless. If you've never fished that stretch before, it's certainly worth trying. I'll probably be there one day next week, but I don't know which day yet. - JR |
