The Fly Shop in Bend, Oregon, operates as one of the Pacific Northwest's most comprehensive fly fishing outfitters, drawing on the extraordinary concentration of diverse fisheries within driving distance of central Oregon. The Deschutes River, one of the premier steelhead and trout rivers on the West Coast, flows just minutes from the shop's door, while the Crooked River, Fall River, and the Metolius River are each within an hour. This geographic advantage, combined with a staff that collectively holds decades of guiding and competitive fly fishing experience, makes The Fly Shop an essential stop for anyone fishing the region.
The retail floor is spacious and methodically organized. A dedicated steelhead section carries the swung-fly rods, reels, lines, and patterns that are central to Deschutes fishing culture, while a separate trout department focuses on the lighter tackle and delicate presentations required for the Crooked River's technical tailwater and the Metolius spring creek. The fly selection is outstanding, with local patterns tied by regional experts alongside proven standards from major manufacturers. The guided trip program covers an unusually broad range of water types, from high-desert canyon rivers to Cascade Range stillwaters and coastal estuaries. The shop also serves as a hub for fly fishing education, offering multi-day schools, single-session casting clinics, and specialty workshops on topics like spey casting, entomology, and fly tying. A well-stocked online store extends the shop's reach to anglers across the country, but the in-person experience, with its firsthand river intelligence and hands-on gear advice, is what keeps local and visiting anglers returning season after season.

“Stopped by the shop right at the end of the day. The two guys at the shop helped us with some diy spots, and fixed my buddy’s BOA in his Korkers. We also had a trip a few days later and had a great day trip on the Lower Deschutes. Thad was our guide for the day, he was knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and put us on some nice fish. Highly recommend the shop as well as their trips.”
“I had a great experience with Fly & Field Outfitters. Adam, my guide, was extremely helpful with lots of tips and advice, especially for a complete novice like me. It was so much fun and I caught my share of rainbows. Plus, the scenery of the Crooked River and the surrounding canyon was amazing. I would highly recommend them!”
“I went on a boys trip out to Bend, Oregon, and we had the absolute pleasure of going on a guided fly fishing trip with Wyatt. I can’t recommend the experience highly enough. From the moment we met, it was clear that Wyatt is not only a skilled angler, but also an incredible guide—patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the sport and the outdoors. We spent the day targeting trout and mountain whitefish, and thanks to Wyatt’s expert instruction and deep understanding of the local waters, we stayed on the fish throughout the day. He gave great casting tips, explained the reasoning behind every fly choice, and adjusted our strategy as conditions changed. Me and the homies walked away with great memories and an addiction for fly fishing (we live in Arizona and we just bought fly rods). The scenery was stunning—peaceful, wild, and exactly the kind of reset we needed. Wyatt also emphasized ethical fishing practices and handled everything with a deep respect for the river and its fish. Whether you're new to fly fishing or have years under your belt, a day on the water with Wyatt is time well spent. Hope to reconnect with him in the future!”
