Crooked River - July 22nd, 2003 |
RECORDED: 
0 °
FISHING: Great

This is a great river for the first time angler, little or no vegetation to obstruct your casting. Unfortunately, the people are as prodigious as the swarms of caddis. You will find fish rising all day. Look for the swarms of caddis in the late afternoon and evening and tiny mayflies all day. If you find the need to go under, try throwing a Pheasant Tail with a small Zebra Midge dropper under a pretty short indicator.

Dries: PMD's, Mahoganny Duns, Dark Caddis, Midges
Emergers: PMD's, Caddis, Midges
Nymphs: Pheasant Tails, Prince, Midges, Serendipities (Red, Orange, Green)
