The Crooked River has some slower days this week compared to how it’s been, but I think it was due to water lever adjustments as the irrigation is ramping up there too.
It is always one of the best streams in the region and the BWO hatches, along with midges and the upcoming Mothers Day Caddis EXPLOSION give us all a lot to be thankful for.
Scuds, Zebra Midges, Soft Hackles, Fire Starters, Jig Napoleon, Split Case PMD and Micro May’s.
