Summer 2005 Volume 5, Number 4Low Flow and/or High Temperature Waters :( In general, depending on species, once temperatures rise above the mid-60s F., trout can start feeling the adverse effects of high temperatures.
Feeding will be reduced.
Sustained swimming becomes more laborious.
The ability to compete with other species for common food sources is reduced once temperatures approach the 70s.
Higher temperatures can affect equilibrium.Lethal temperatures, depending on species, range from 74 F to 79 F. However, it's possible for trout to survive at these temperatures if they locate cool thermal refuges, or if these high temperatures are moderated by drops in temperature at night. There are no hard and fast criteria that definitely determine when it's okay to fish and when it's not. But anglers should be extra-cautious handling trout when water temperatures reach the mid 60s. It's wise to consider avoiding waters where temperatures reach 70 F. or more each day during a sustained period. Watch fish behavior after you release them. If they're sluggish or seem slower to recover than usual, they could be stressed from the effects of high temperatures.
Diamond D Ranch The Diamond D Ranch has become our home away from home. As mid summer approaches Loon Creek has been fishing very well, although the stone flies are over, big attractor dry flies seem to fit the bill. There are some really nice bull trout in this stream as well as on the private lake on the ranch. Much to our amazement occasionally the bull trout will chase the small rainbows we catch. In addition to lodging at the ranch we are offering 3-4 day pack trips six to twelve miles down Loon Creek for the wilderness fly fishing experience of a lifetime. The Cutthroat fishing this far in is phenomenal!!!

DREAMS ON THE FLY Where all your fly fishing dreams begin!!! Remember...Teach a child to fish & change his life forever!!! Grande Ronde Steelhead Clinic & BBQ Fall and Winter were very good to us here at Dreams on the Fly...Our first annual Steelhead Clinic & BBQ was a huge success, so much so we have people booking for the upcoming clinic on September 24th, 2005. Our guests received 5 hours of steelhead fly fishing instruction, knots and leaders, fly line types, and so much more. We spent 3 hours in the water, actually practicing what we taught. Then we disbursed, with some heading home and others like Terry (below) fishing and using the techniques we taught. The cost of the clinic is $50.00 and includes all you can eat riverside BBQ. Web Specials <http://www.dreamsonthefly.com/webspecials.html> In addition to the 2nd Annual Steelhead Clinic and BBQ, we are offering a 2-day intensive Spey Rod Steelhead Fishing Clinic. This will consist of our 2 day Spey Class and will be held September 10th & 11th, 2005 on the Grande Ronde River. This two day class will be held on the water.
