Big River provides the perfect place to launch a canoe or kayak into the Deschutes River, and many visitors brave the waters on inner tubes. Only non-motorized boating is permitted on the river, and the water is Class II flatwater for about 6 miles below Sunriver.
The Deschutes River is renowned for its fly fishing, and sustains populations of kokanee, rainbow, bull and brown trout. Boat fishing or drift fishing is the best way to catch fish at this part of the river.
