Crane Prairie Report

Crane Prairie was good for me yesterday, at least with a good 2 hour bite around lunch time on a Duct Tape (blood worm). Red Ice Cream Cones, Balanced Leeches (try Bruised and Black-n Red, and olive). Our FFP guide Steve had good success a few days ago stripping old school Wooly Buggers on an intermediate line a few days ago. The Biblical Midge Hatch that was so annoying last week was nearly nonexistent yesterday.
New Docks were being put in yesterday and today. Can’t wait to use them.
