Hi Jeff,
Hope all is well with you! I fished Crane yesterday and today, the weather was sunny yesterday but pretty gross today. The biggest challenge is too much wind! The morning has been best both days. Not overly hot fishing but they are definitely around. Haven’t fished the channels, been mostly in 8-10 feet of water.
Yesterday pumpkin leech and balanced damsel was best, also got at least one on a Tungsten Poudre Pupa. Do you know what this little tan bug imitates? Is it a chironomid still covered in mud or what?
Today with the weather being gross I didn’t even try damsels. I went 2/6. One fish on a black balanced leech and the other on red holo jig.
Overall fish quality has been good (besides one wierd really skinny 21 incher), a lot of nice sized fish. Thursday the buddy I am fishing with got a beautiful 23 incher which was very cool!!
Hoping to fish tommorow morning there as well, hope we get a few more! Hope this update is helpful for you, and you have a great summer.
Best,
Micah K
