Crane Prairie has been hit-or-miss but is still worth the effort. The best action has been coming out of the Quinn and Cultus arms, where fish are holding near submerged timber and channel edges. Chironomids, dark leeches, and Callibaetis nymphs are all in play. Dry-dropper rigs with a chubby up top and something like a 2 Bit Hooker or Balanced Scud below can be deadly when fish move up to feed.
