Nope, no adjustment of your monitor is necessary. The photo above is in color! The Fall 2012 Technical Men’s Conference (Old dawgs who have fished together for decades) began with some inclement weather last week. Although the skies were dark, our spirits were high just because we were on the Deschutes. Our first days proved to be slow just like the recents reports about steelheading.
We were glad to say good riddens to the dark, windy days and finally greeted with some sunny skies.
Jim Reichman of the Mckenzie River Trust Board past by one day and gave us a nice photo of our camp from the water.
Fishing on this day provided some of the finest fishing of our trip. Small nymphs like the Pheasant Tails, Copper Johns, Hares Ear Soft hackles, provided some nice redsides to hand.
Another trip in the books and another Deschutes trout season is about to pass. The paths following the river continue to bring us to appreciate the magnificence of this very special place.
