My good friend Ron came over from Boise to fish the Crooked River earlier this week and had really good fishing. He was catching them on Midges and Dry Caddis and said the fish were rising even in the morning. Zebra Midges, Ray Charles, Pink Scuds and even a Royal Wulff did the trick.
Capt. Drew from the shop was out there yesterday and had a great day on Eggs and Perdigons and CDC Pheasant Tails #18. My friend Dick has been getting on the Crooked on a regular basis and is fishing a good afternoon hatch of dark BWO duns. He said they are almost black and the fish are keen to eat the emergers and duns around noon. It should be a great week to be on the Crooked and this is whitefish spawning time, so as you choose the eggs think more yellowish than bright orange. While I know either will work, the whitey eggs are yellowish to chartreuse color and if the fish get selective that could make a difference. Mile post 12 up to MP19 below the Bowman Dam is all good.
