The Sprague River Road is now open from the Copper Field Fire. Some sections above Braymill the Sprague River have burned.
Redband trout are beginning to move around with higher flows and colder water temperatures. Small black wooly buggers or jigs work best. In some areas grasshopper patterns can work OK.
Best places to fish for brown trout and redband trout are the fast water areas near Chiloquin High School, the narrows and near all the springs in Beatty. Boats can be launched at two locations above Beatty.
There are a few warmwater fish in the Sprague. The dominate warmwater fish is yellow perch. A few largemouth bass are around but their population has declined. There are also small brown bullhead. The best place to fish for warmwater fish is above Saddle Mtn Pit Road Bridge to near Godowa Springs Road Bridge. Bait is allowed in this section.
