September 26 - October 1
Fall River, Central Oregon
Next weekend you will find TVTU members on the Fall River! Fall River Campground will be the spot to stay and keep warm by the campfire with tales of tails! This small 12 site campground out of La Pine has been the TVTU home-away-from-home for the popular Fall River outing for a good number of years and is a nice spot to base camp - with open camping sites there is room to share as well.

And a RSVP for the trip would be appreciated as well.

UPDATED INFO FROM ANDY:
The Fall River:
The Fall is a 12 mile spring creek that
starts near Lapine and dumps into the Deschutes. And though rare, I've
seen 5 or more bug hatches in the air at the same time so its a real
bug factory. Green Drakes, Western Leadwings ( Adams pattern and yes,
big ones like 10 and 12's) and most all standard patters will work their
magic on fish you cannot see, even though this is a spring creek
shallow enough to wade in most spots. Cold water, lots of bugs, weeds
and big fish up to 20 inches.
Prepare well as the nights are cold with temps
around freezing with 25 degrees not uncommon. The lowest I've seen was
18. The days are usually sunny and warm. There will be BBQ on Saturday
night with the meat provided but it would be nice if those attending
provide chips and dip, salad or some other food to share with the group.
