Description

Abstract: The Metolius River is a major tributary to the Deschutes River and courses through an extremely popular recreation area. It is roaded almost its entire length, and is located a short drive off U.S. Highway 26. The stream is a favorite of many trout anglers. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Department is currently managing the Metolius River from Lake Creek to Candle Creek (11 miles) with annual releases of hatchery yearling rainbow trout. In July 1981, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission accepted the Department's recommendation to continue to manage the Metolius River for wild and hatchery trout.
