The Crooked River is fishing great, water levels are a nice summer level at 277 cfs and while nymphing is going to offer the best results day to day, our guide team has certainly found some really nice dry fly times recently. PMD’s and Caddis are the main hatches, but also use a Purple Haze, Renegade, Adams and a Laramer’s Yellow Sally which is robust enough to float with a nymph behind it as a dry-dropper rig. I think the fish eat that larimer’s fly as an immature grasshopper. 

Scuds, Zebra Midges, Lighting Bugs, Fire Starters, Micro Mayflies, 2 Bit Hookers, Brown and Olive Perdigons and Red Worms are all productive now.
