FISHING - CONSERVATION - EDUCATION
Come to the Sunriver Anglers Meeting on Wednesday, June 4th to learn about the myriad of Fly-Fishing opportunities in the lakes here in Central Oregon. For this month’s presentation, Shannon Sands of Fly and Field will concentrate on some of the best lake fishing in our area. He will talk about some of his favorite lakes, when and how to fish them, and the types of equipment and flies he typically uses. You can also pick his brain for steelhead info! Be sure to bring your questions for the latest intel.
Shannon Sands Bio:
“All things spey and steelhead is my game. My earliest memories are of fishing the NW Oregon coastal rivers along with the Sandy and Clackamas while growing up. After college I moved to Sunriver where I was a golf pro at both the Woodlands and Meadows while fishing the lakes before and after work...especially my favorite lake, Davis. While I loved the golf industry it really put a damper on my fishing time and I had to give one up, of course fishing won the battle.
I started working for the Sunriver Fly Shop for 6 years and have since been with Fly and Field for 4 years now. You'll find me on Crane prairie from May to early July, East Lake with my daughter, but mainly I'll be prowling the waters of any river that has steelhead swimming in it. I would be hard pressed to name a favorite river but the North Umpqua, Deschutes, and Bulkley river would be somewhere in my top 5.”
