Fishing

Central Oregon is chock full of great fishing rivers like the upper Deschutes, Fall River, the Crooked River and the world-famous Metolius. There also are dozens of glassy, high-mountain lakes to choose from. If you have a boat you can bring home giant Lake Trout and Kokanee —anywhere from 3 to 30 lbs! So grab your rod… good fishing is just a five-minute walk from PointsWest.

What Locals Know:

Fly fishing for beautiful, native Redsides on the lower Deschutes. The Salmon Fly hatch is epic. Plan you next trip around it… usually in early June. That stretch of river is also famous for its steelhead runs. Just an hour and a half from PointsWest.
