The Ronde is one of the greatest summer steelhead rivers in the west. Remote, wild, an outright spectacular desert river. I was there a few weeks ago and in 3 days landed no less then 8 steelhead with several LDRs. 3 or 4 of those fish were taken on surface flies and likely many more would have been if I had fished the surface more. You will have trouble finding another river where such fishing can be had.
