Mary Ann and I got the chance to camp for a few days on the Deschutes River last week.  She spent 3 days searching for steelhead…she hooked two steelhead…lost both of them!  I spent my time with my 8′  3″  5 wt bamboo rod tempting trout.  I didn’t get many but did manage to pick up a few nice rainbows on stonefly nymphs. Here are a few photos of our time on the Deschutes.

A nice rainbow that took a #6 orange and brown Jimmy Leggs Nymph Pattern.
