Crane Prairie has been fishing fair. Balanced leeches, damsels, chironomids, callibaetis and water boatmen are all good to have in your box and give a try. We have heard some positive reports on balanced leeches in the mornings before the sun gets on the water. Stripping leeches, boatmen, and damsel nymphs is also a good way to find some fish and cover more water than an idle indicator setup. Damsel and callibaetis dries can also be effective if you're seeing fish rising.
