There are many good fishing opportunities within an hour or so from Bend.

The Metolius is beautiful and challenging. It can be a little crowded on weekends. Don't expect to catch a lot of fish but it's worth the trip.

The Crooked River, below Bowman dam, holds a lot of fish. It remains to be seen what effect the high flows during runoff this year will have on the fishing.

The Fall River is a spring creek south of Bend. It is stocked regularly. Although many of the fish are plants, the crystal clear water can present a challenge. Light tippets are the rule.

The Deschutes has several sections that are all very different and each with it's own charms. It goes from a small forest stream to a broad meandering river to a large desert canyon river.

There are a number of great fly fishing lakes near Bend. Crane Prairie reservoir, Big Lava Lake, Hosmer Lake and East Lake to name a few. The Cascade Lakes Hwy is worth the drive for the scenery alone.
