The Crooked River is really fishing well, with some afternoon hatch of midges #22 and BWO’s #18-20 and still a smattering of PMD’s #18 too.
But the best action by far was coming on nymphs this past week. Skinny Nelson, Zebra Midge, Scuds, Eggs, Split Case PMD, Brown or Olive Micro Mayfly and Brown or Olive Perdigons have been super good. Fish them Euro Style using about 4 feet of 6x fluorocarbon tippet off the sighter, or about 4 to 5 feet behind a Corq or NZ Wool Indicator.
