Grindstone Lakes


Grindstone lakes are located in Central Oregon near Prineville. Fishing in a pontoon boat is a peaceful way to fish especially when you need to sneak up on fish feeding on #14 Poxyback Callibaetis!

Rodger Carbon http://www.carbonesflyfishing.com provides the meals and organizes the group and rotates the five lakes available for fishing. In a word, the fishing was phenomenal!

The highlight of the trip for me is fishing with my good friend and guide Rob Crandall. A special treat on this trip was also fishing with Wendy Way. Wendy just returned from a month in British Columbia and is "experienced" in fishing Chironomid patterns. He is a wealth of knowledge and a true pioneer in fly fishing.

Wendy will lend us a hand in developing a WolfPk Outdoors Stillwater fly box. According to Wendy - "Some people tie flies to catch fisherman, I ties flies to catch fish." I can personally attest to that!
