The Crooked River is in prime shape at 227 cfs and with the reservoir still at 63% full we are going to have a good fall and winter fishing season on the Crooked.
BWO hatches are increasing and overlapping late season PMD’s. Make sure to have a Furminsky’s BWD Dun and an Extended Body Cut Wing PMD for your afternoon sessions on the Crooked. Purple Haze, Comparaduns and Sparkle Duns are wise choices too.
Euro Nymph jigs and perdigons to match the current or upcoming hatch. Meaning, BWO = #18 Brown or Olive Perdigon. PMD = #16 Brown or yellow Perdigon. That is a good starting point for you and add some Zebra Midges, Winklers, Scuds, 2 Bits and Micro Mayflies.
