An unseasonably warm and dry start to fall has actually pertained to an end. We are lastly beginning to see conditions we are more familiar with seeing in October. A reasonable quantity of rainfall and cooler temperature levels have actually actually assisted the fishing both on the McKenzie and Willamette. We have actually had some great reports of dry fly fishing up on the MF Willamette with little dries, Carlson’s Olive Haze, little Purple Haze, Parachute Adams, Mahogany Duns all in 14-18 size variety. If fish aren’t increasing to your offerings, stick to the typical hopper dropper techniques with a Chubby Chernobyl and slim, quick sinking jig nymphs like the PCP #14, Dally’s Tailwater Jig #14,Peacock Frenchie #12 The projection for the next couple weeks is revealing a considerable drop in temperature level with more rain on the method, so go out there while the gettin’s great.
