RAINBOWS IN HOLY WATER Most expert anglers agree that Southern Oregon holds some of the best fly-fish waters anywhere in the western region of the United States.  One location known by nearly all local enthusiasts is named “The Holy Water.” This short stretch of catch-and-release–only water on the Rogue River is just downstream from the Lost Creek Recreational Lake Dam, near the town of Shady Cove, on Highway 62. At “The Holy Water,” big rainbow trout inhabit creek-like water, and carefully inspect an angler’s offering.

KLAMATH LAKE RAINBOWS & GERMAN BROWN TROUT ARE THE REAL LUNKERS
Will Johnson at the Rogue Angler Fly Shop in Ashland agrees that the Rogue River is the place to start, but reminds us that there is also great trout action just “over the hill” in the Klamath Falls area. The Williamson River of the Klamath Falls region is often named among the very top trophy rainbow streams in the western United States. Trout are measured in pounds, not inches, here, with fish from 5 – 10 pounds common and sometimes even larger!A guide is recommended to show you the ways of these lunkers. Contact Main Street Tours for the best Klamath Region guides.
