September-April: Best to fish when the weather is bad. Afternoon hatches on cold, overcast days.
General Info: Oregon is the home to Big Y Fly Co. We love it here! The fishing is great, and the fishing culture is top-notch. There are year-round quality fisheries across the state. You can catch steelhead 365 days a year within a mile of Big Y Fly Co headquarters.
Trout fishing is as good as it gets on the Deschutes River system (and a few others), and there are countless mountain streams and lakes across the state.
If steelhead and trout are not on the menu, the smallmouth fishery is as fine as you will find anywhere.
We also receive a huge run of American Shad as well as all 5 Pacific salmon. Beyond that, there are plenty of saltwater options for anglers looking for more variety.
