The Crooked River has been fishing well. The flows have been all over the place but the fish don’t seem to mind much. Caddis and PMD’s make for good dry fly opportunities on some days. Nymphing remains the most consistent method for picking up fish and small zebra midges, scuds, two-bits, and tailwater tinys are some of our go-to’s. Swinging soft hackles has also been producing fish. The Crooked Canyon is a beautiful place to hangout for the day so get out there and get after some fish!
