# TIGHT LINES AND HOT TIPS: JUNE FLY FISHING BUZZ
Hey there, fellow fly flingers! While you're tying up those summer patterns, here's what's buzzing in the fly fishing world this June:
WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS WRAP-UP
The 2025 World Fly Fishing Championships just wrapped up in the Czech Republic, where Team USA and 32 other countries battled it out last month[5]. Session 3 at Lipno II Reservoir proved particularly challenging with freshly stocked trout throwing curveballs at even the most seasoned competitors[2]. Our own Devin Olsen was in the thick of it, showcasing his micro leader euro nymphing techniques against tough competition including Howard Croston and Team England. The pocketed rivers played right into the hands of euro nymphing specialists, with competitors alternating between single nymph and dry dropper setups to fool those selective Czech trout.
DESCHUTES MOSQUITO MADNESS
If you're heading to the Upper Deschutes right now, pack your bug spray and maybe a head net unless you want to donate a pint to the local mosquito population! Despite the bug situation, the fishing is actually firing on all cylinders[3]. Green Drakes are making appearances in the headwaters, alongside PMDs, Caddis, Yellow Sallys, and terrestrials. Word is the Golden Stone hatch is still about 10 days out, but don't let that stop you from throwing some Clark's Stones ahead of the main event. Mono-rig setups with euro-nymphs (particularly Dark or Light Walts Worms and various Perdigons) are producing consistently.
FALL RIVER FEEDING FRENZY
The Fall River is fishing exceptionally well right now, thanks in part to ODFW's recent stocking efforts[3]. PMDs and Olive Caddis are the headline acts, with a #16 Henryville or #16 Olive Elk Hair Caddis being your go-to dries. For those PMD hatches, try Film Critics and Knock Down Duns as emerger patterns. Local guides are reporting good success with Harrops Captive Dun in PMD colors, a pattern that's traditionally crushed it during Callibaetis hatches on stillwaters. Pack the bug juice here too—the mosquitoes are making themselves known, especially around the Falls, Tubes, and Campground areas.
SPRING READING FOR RAINY DAYS
For those inevitable summer thunderstorms that keep you off the water, the spring issue of The Drake Magazine is still available and packed with content to fuel your fishing daydreams[1]. This edition features pieces on Wyoming trout, Louisiana redfish, Hawaii bonefish, and the legendary River Test. There's also coverage on Bahamian bones and Atlantic adventures to scratch that saltwater itch if you're planning a coastal escape this summer.
So there you have it, folks—enough fishing intel to keep your line tight and your fly box ready. Remember, the best time to go fishing is whenever you can!
