Williamson River |
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
The Williamson river is mostly a boating river, with some bank access. During the summer months it feels much like a spring creek. Abundant insects keep the fish eating and fishermen happy. Sink tips and streams are to be used when the fish won't bite and the water is high. Guide use is reccomended and the scenery is extravagant, so pack your camera. Rainbows are dominant in the system, which get up to 15-pounds, Browns and brook may be caught. Early season has lots of Mayfly activity, The whole Season there are Caddis. Streamers(the most important) are used criticaly through out the whole season. June and July are good times for Terrestrials. |

Malheur River |
|
|
|
The Malheur River is open all year long, but productive fishing is limited to Early spring and Fall, due to the fact of farming irrigation. The river is warmer than most other streams in the area, which is at fault for the abundance of baitfish. #10 olive Scud is a must pattern for this river, Dry fly fishing is limited to brown stoneflys in the spring and Tricos in the summer and fall. Along with minnows this stream has an aboundant population of Crayfish. Streamer fishing is the way to go here, and when you do, have heavy tippets and be prepared.
Access is from Juntura on Hwy. 20. West of the town you will find the Juntura-Riverside Road, which is gravel. The first access point is at the second cattle guard. To the left of the guard there is a dirt road leading down a valley(4x4 vehicle required). You can walk up the river as far as you want, its all sagebrush here. Often times you and bighorn sheep will be the only things in this area.
Riverside bridge is the next access point, and is just downstream of the Warm Springs dam. From here you can walk or boat down river.There are many deep pools, riffles, and shallow boulder-filled glides. No boat ramps, but rafts can be launched from the riverside bridge and taken out at lower access. this is a 2 day trip at least. |

Deep Creek |
|
|
|
| A remote Southeastern Oregon Stream this creek has fish upto 16 inches. Hwy. 140 follows the creek upstream from Adel, which offers easy access. Below Adel the creek is mostly private land, so it is suggested that you stay upstream. Summertime is too hot and the fish aren't active, but Spring and Fall are great. Most attractor patterns work well and some parachutes adams will make up a good dry fly selection. |
