The Mckenzie River is fishing fantastic! Water levels are perfect throughout the system, Green McKenzie Caddis are out, Little Yellow Stones, late March Browns, Pale Morning Duns, Golden Stones and more are emerging daily. Above and listed below the dam fishing has actually been exceptional.
If you are seeking to fish above Leaburg dam be prepared to await “tree elimination” hold-ups as there are numerous stops east of Vida as you take a trip on HWY 126. I have actually been including thirty minutes to enable roadway hold-ups for my journeys above the dam.
Hopper Dropper rigs with a Chubby Chernobyl and a euro style nymph have actually worked also.
It looks like we are a great month or more ahead of a regular water year. It’s uneasy for summer season water and fishing conditions so it’s a fantastic call to go out there and take pleasure in perfect conditions now as this summer season may be odd.
