The Crooked River is one of the best places to fish in Central Oregon right now. It is just really hot fishing and with good PMD #16 and BWO #18 hatches you can also expect to see good dry fly action.
Swinging a Soft Hackle has been fabulous, and nymphing a tight line/euro rig or indicator action with a NZ Wool kit is great. Micro Mayfly Nymphs and Skinny Nelsons #16-20 are the best, Perdigons #16, Fire Starter #16, Scuds #14-16, Zebra Midges and Winkers #18-22, Psycho Prince #16 Orange.
On the Dry Fly Side I love the Extended Body Cut Wing PMD’s in 16 and 18, Furminksy’s BDE #18, Knock Down Dun Olive #18, Sparkle Dun #16 Yellow and #18 Olive and Parachutes, including Purple Haze in #16-20. We will get a couple of weeks here with Mahogany Duns mixed in with the other 2 mayflies, so add a Quill Gordon #16 and an Upright Rusty Spinner #16 to match that hatch.
