The Crooked River is a Mixed Bag

The Crooked River is a mixed bag. Catch rates are good to very good most days, but there is a lot of people there and there is a lot of slimy dark green moss in the drift. Be prepared to clean it off your leader and fly frequently. In this case, when the moss drift is so abundant I prefer to stick to a single fly to not have to clean so much off between casts.

Perdigons, Zebra Midges, Midge Winklers, Skinny Nelson’s and Scuds are all good.

In the evening there has been a good caddis hatch that a small X Caddis (brown is best) is a great match for. Not many people stay past 4, so it is nice to get a break from all the people in the mid day
