The Crooked River is also (still) good. Water level is 179 today. No word on when it is going to 10, but I hear the end of the month. I know people are still fighting for something better than 10 until the Habitat Conservation Plan minimum of 50 takes effect in October. I’d sure like to see more of our local fly clubs, Trout Unlimited and our Conservation Groups be more vocal on the matter. Where are you?????!!!!!
PMD and Mahogany Duns are the primary hatches. Hoppers can be fun here in August.
Nymphing perdigons and zebra midges is producing a lot of rainbows and whitefish.
