The Crooked River electro shocking survey has been completed and that should mean better flows and better fishing for the coming week. 
They bump the flow a bit to make it easier for ODFW to get the big rafts down river the electroshocking gear. 
Most people are headed out to the Crooked bankers hours and are finding good nymph fishing on perdigons, 2 bit hookers, micro mayflies, scuds and zebra midges. 
In the morning look for rising trout to PMD’s and Caddis. I would even say you could put a small Royal Wulff or a Renegade on these fish and they will eat it. 
Later in the afternoon, PMD’s will return and the evening hatch of caddis can be impressive.
