https://tomloe.com/Look for hydro power generation at times. The river section will get washed out during this period; but it makes the inlet section a good area to target from a tube. The largest planters of the year are now getting caught here. Tubing is the best way to get into some chunky Oregon rainbows. Fish the transition into the lake; or small river section below the powerhouse using dry/dropper rigs. The short river section has been best for numbers of smaller planted rainbows, with some wild browns. Stimulators, hi-vis para BWO’s, or hi-vis caddis may be used as the upper fly-use crystal olive caddis larva, flashback PT’s, Assassins, broken back or crystal tiger & zebra midges as your dropper bead head nymph. Tubing the section from the launch ramp, up to the inlet section is the best. Streamers like Loebergs, Agent Orange, Crystal leeches, & Spruce-A-Bu’s will get you into some decent browns, & fat holdover bows from a recent trout derby. Use a full sinking, or heavy sink tip line to get down 10-15 feet quickly. You can also fish “Crowley midge style” using an Under-cator strike detector in the rez proper near the drop-offs. Fish chironomid patterns below an Under-cator. Gillies, broken back midges, crystal emergers & pupa patterns. Tiger & zebra midges are always a solid choice for your larva pattern. The hydroelectric plant can operate at anytime. This can raise water levels quickly, & shut off a bite in the river section.
