Deschutes River Overnight Trips

River Borne Outfitters runs multi-day fly fishing drift and jet boat trips on the Deschutes river, Oregon for trout and steelhead, from Trout creek to Maupin and from Macks canyon to the Columbia.

Trout Creek-Maupin

During the trout season (May-August) the most popular multi-day float on the Deschutes is from Trout Creek down. Most clients find lodging the night before the trip in either Bend, Redmond, or Madras. Your guides will schedule a meet time for the morning the day of the float somewhere convenient to your location.

Fishing licenses, boater passes, and equipment preparations need to be in order before the launch date. We will have the boats, camp gear, food and beverages, (let us know ahead of time if you have any dietary restrictions) and shuttles ready to go.

If we can carpool, the shuttles are on us, if the clients need their vehicles at the take out they must provide their own shuttle. When we arrive at the launch, our camp host (the bagger) will have dry bags for you to put your gear in. Anything you don’t need for the day of fishing will go with him. The bagger will immediately launch, racing down stream to secure and set up a camp. The clients and guides take their time fishing their way down to camp, with a stream side barbecue lunch being the only real obligation of the day!

Typically Trout Creek to Maupin is done in three to four days. We usually arrive at the boat ramp on the last day around 3:00 p.m. and are back to Bend by 6:00 p.m. We run steelhead trips on this section of the Deschutes in the fall, the itinerary is the same except for an earlier meet time.

Macks Canyon-Columbia

Are noisy sleds ripping up and down the river not your thing? Yet you still want a crack at those early steelies? Well then book a overnight drift boat trip during the four day window that the sleds are required to be off the river! Fish and float, and enjoy the peace and quite of a motor boat free river. Lodging for the night prior to the trip can be found in Maupin, Madras, Bend, and even Hood River. It all depends on where you are coming from.
All logistics are the same as the other float.
