Bridget Moran is the Field Supervisor for the Bend USFWS office where she manages a team of biologists working on a variety of efforts in Central Oregon.  She will discuss water management issues in the Deschutes Basin, with a discussion about the Deschutes Basin Habitat Conservation Plan (DBHCP), the first few years of DBHCP's implementation, and its long-term goals for the Deschutes and Crooked Rivers.

This month, Vail Borne, owner of River Borne Outfitters and the Deschutes River Fly Shop & Camp, will share his experiences from 15 years guiding the Lower Deschutes River.  He will explore the different fishing options including the "day stretch" from Warm Springs to Trout Creek, the closest opportunity for anglers coming from Bend, and the section that holds the largest trout in the river.
