FEATURED ARTICLE

On the 3rd day of fly fishing for sailfish out of Iztapa, Guatemala with Capt. Chris Sheeder aboard the Magic, the day started out like most days in some of the best sailfish waters in the world, with some pretty good action as soon as we got on...

Boulder Lake The Patient Angler has started booking a new private lake called Boulder Lake. Boulder Lake is 8 acres in size and is located on a ranch just 30 minutes from Bend, off of Hwy 126. The lake is full of good looking aggressive Rainbow trout that run from 16 inches, to over 8 lbs. Boulder Lake is a great fishing opportunity for fly anglers of all skill levels. I have fished Boulder Lake twice this season and both times were very productive. Last Sunday I fished the lake for about three hours and hooked at least fifteen fish, landed about a dozen and four of them were 7 to 9 lbs. One of the big boys took a small green bugger about 25 feet from the bank and ran off for the middle of the lake, taking all my line and went 20 yards into my backing. We will be offering fly-fishing schools and events threw out the season for small or large groups. The fee for fishing Boulder Lake non-guided is $100 per rod. So if you need to scratch that itch for a big fish, or want to learn to fly fish in a very productive environment, just give us a call and The Patient Angler will set you up. I just posted some photo’s of fishing at Boulder Lake on our web site patientangler.com
