Wood River - Klamath Falls, OR (Klamath County)

River flows are dropping. Water temperatures are warming. The river is turbid due to Annie Creek influence and snow melt run off. Best fishing will be for Brown Trout above Crooked Creek. Fishing is improving. Grasshoppers are out. Flies and lures that mimic fish, crayfish, sculpin, worms, leeches and salmonfly nymphs will work best. There seems to be a good abundance of 14-to-18-inch Brown Trout. Pale morning duns and salmonflies are hatching.

Access points from the bank will be at Weed Road, BLM Wetland, and USFS Day use area. Motorboats can launch at Weed Road and Petric Park. Boats launched above Weed Road need to portage around several structures and bridges. Bridges are too low for a typical drift boat to float underneath. Kayaks and very small boats can launch at Loosley Road, Highway 62 Bridge, Dixon Road Bridge, and Kimball State Park. There are few fish above Annie Creek or near Kimball Park.
