Crooked River Report 8/6/21

Crooked River Report 8/6/21

The Crooked has been good over the past week. Water levels are holding at around 200 CFS. There have been good hatches of pale morning duns and caddis. Most of the surface action is in the morning and evening. Terrestrials can work well midday, especially with a nymph dropper. Caddis pupa have been working well. At times, you may see trout rising but there are no bugs on the surface. Typically, this implies that the trout are feeding on caddis pupa right before they emerge and become adults. Small mayfly nymphs, midges, and Ray Charles sowbugs have also been getting attention from the redsides. Hopefully, summer will come to a quick end once we’re in September so that we can conserve as much water in Prineville Reservoir as possible.
