The Crooked River is down to 63 cfs today, and there is a pretty good afternoon mayfly hatch of mostly BWO’s #18-20 and some PMD’s #18. Black Midges #20-22 are a huge part of the menu on the top and underneath. With the water low, in many of the nymphing spots I like to use the NZ Wool Indicator and have the indicator set to keep the one nymph I choose up over the weeds. Yes, there are some good Euro Nymphing spots too, but at low water I like the suspension of the wool, and feel it fishes better.
Scuds are an important fall menu item too.
No Whitefish eggs yet, but in November that is a big deal.
