Had a great experience with this shop today. As a newbie to the deschutes, Amy and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful in both fly selection and general river advice which resulted in an awesome 1st trip with 3 large redbands landed (ON AMY'S RECOMMENDED FLY CHOICE) couldn't recommend this shop more!

They know the river better than anyone else. Listen to them. On your next trip stop by and get some advice on what the trout are taking and you will catch more fish. I was helped by a number of their team while on my trip and got nothing but solid advice and kind customer service - Thanks
