Mary Ann and I got out on the Deschutes River this week searching for trout and steelhead.  I targeted trout with small #18 nymphs and was very successful, with several nice 15″ to 18″ fish to the net.  Mary Ann took out my 10′  6″  5 wt Micro Spey in search of steelhead, and although she didn’t find any, she still hooked a few nice rainbows and whitefish.  A very nice day on the river.

A nice rainbow that took a #18 Pheasant Tail nymph.

This guy was happy to take a #18 tan caddis pupa fished on the bottom.
