Your can probably fly to PDX chaeaper than Bend and have enough money to
boot to rent a car ( If you look you can cars for around $20-25 a day with
unlimited milage.). Bend and the Dechutes all the way to the Columbia
should be good. With the car you can try a few other places, like th Umqua
or even some of the rivers on the coast.

Cheaper than free (frequent flyer ticket) would be tough to find (unless I
can find someone to pay me to travel!) but thanks for the pointers, BJ.
Mostly wondering out loud if mid-May is a decent time to fish- run off
concerns etc. Although it sounds like run off won't be a big problem in the
PNW this year...

Those pictures of JR's are just too tempting, and I've got a (ex) brother in
law out that way who I think I could lure into a long weekend on the water.

JR-

If the possibility arose for one to, hypothetically, use some frequent
flyer
miles and fly to PDX or Eugene in, say, mid-May, would one find that the
fishing around Bend at that time of year to be worth making such a trip?
