Fish Report for 10-8-2023

The Crooked River is a lot lower than the last report

The Crooked River is a lot lower than the last report, now at 70 cfs and hopefully that is the lowest it goes. Prineville Reservoir is over 60% full so I would anticipate a safe winter flow this year, and a good summer flow next season providing even a modest snowpack.
Good afternoon dry fly bite on Purple Comparaduns, BDE Duns, Cut Wing Extended Body PMD, Sparkle Duns and Knock Down Duns. Keep an eye peeled for fish keyed on Midges too and switch to a Winkler or Griffiths Gnat.
Scuds, Zebra Midges, Thread Midges, Perdigons, 2 Bit BWO’s and Skinny Nelsons are hot nymphs for the next several weeks.
