The Crooked River is so good. It amazes me how the water can rage all freaking winter and finally drop to normal levels in the last 2 weeks and boom, the fishing is right back to excellent.
Mother’s Day Caddis are still out, but it is slowing a bit. Still important and make sure you have #14-16 caddis to match. These Brachycentrus caddis can be black, light tan or greyish-olive in tone. usually I find the fish will eat the olive almost any time….But even Crooked River fish have a tendency to be fussy eaters from time to time.
Add some Purple Haze and Renegades to the box, and even a Black Ant.
Nymph action is phenomenal mostly with Rainbow Warriors, Perdigons, Zebra Midges, Scuds and 2 Bit Hookers.
