This week, Bend, Oregon is getting a new Orvis dealer in the form of Confluence Fly Shop, owned and operated by former Orvis Bend Fishing Manager, Tye Krueger. He says that it has always been his dream to be a fly-shop owner, so you can expect that he will hit the ground running and offer the best possible service. The shop is located at 375 SW Powerhouse Drive in Bend, and it’s already open if you can’t wait until Saturday. Here’s the announcement Tye sent out this week:
Come join us Saturday June, 29th for our Grand Opening!! Join us all day on Saturday for give-aways and casting demos!
Starting at 5 p.m. we will be serving up some more fun!
– Delicious Tri Tip from Country Catering!
– Beer from Deschutes Brewery & Wine!
– Awesome Raffle Prizes including an ORVIS HELIOS 2 FLY ROD valued at $800!
So, if you’re one of those strange folks who don’t enjoy good food, great beer, and the possibility of winning an incredible fishing rod, you may wanna stay home and mow the lawn or something. But if you live anywhere near Bend and love to fly fish, don’t miss this great event.
For more information or details about the raffle, stop by the shop or call 541-678-5633. Go “like” the shop Facebook page, too, to receive frequent updates.
The shop will carry a full line of Orvis products, and Tye is a wealth of information.

I went on two different multi-day trips, trout and steelhead, with the same guides this past year. Both guides, Branden and Jeremiah, would insanely helpful through each trip – always willing to take time to teach/instruct each angler on the trip. They were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and always happy to answer questions. Additionally, they collectively showed a genuine interest in providing whatever experience each angler was hoping to have. Whether providing helpful pointers, entertaining stories, and the ability to understand when/how to avoid crowding or overwhelming their clients—they were true professionals in every possible way. The entire experience, from scheduling, preparing, while on the trip or the days following, was awesome. I couldn’t provide a higher recommendation for the guides and overall experience. The amount of fun, learning and enjoyment will keep me coming back for years to come!
