If you are going to fish the Deschutes or Crooked River, Hwy 26 is the most direct route from Portland to Central Oregon.  Here is a good way to check out the road conditions through the Cascade Mountain Passes:
Road Cams. Stop and see us. 
We have all the right flies, free coffee and clean rest rooms.  

Hatches: The Salmonfly/Golden Stone hatch is in full swing from Maupin to Warm Springs. Fish close to the bank, under overhanging vegetation and cash in. PMD and PED hatches have been strong in the area around Maupin. Keep your eyes open for Green Drakes and Little Yellow Stones, Little Olive Stones. For the nymph fisher: Caddis Pupa, Prince Nymphs and Glo Bugs fished along the bottom.  Look for Tan Crane Flies most days. Midge hatches occur nearly every day. Many days there is  "behavioral drift", which means that many aquatic insects will be migrating along the bottom and be available to feeding trout. Nymph fishing can be good all day.  The above situations are best covered with a floating fly line and all patterns are fished drag free. Fishing wooly buggers deep on the swing with a fast sinking tip is also a method that is producing some real nice trout.

Other Information: The Deschutes is one of the great rivers in the Pacific Northwest. Much of it is open to angling year round. Few rivers in the world can boast as good endemic resident trout populations as the Deschutes. Add in big runs of summer and fall steelhead and you have one of the finest fisheries in the world.
