Odfw rec report 3/9/2011

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: redband trout and mountain whitefish Small nymph imitations work well and blue wing olive hatches are common in March. Flows have been more consistent lately; however, check flows before venturing out. Fishing should improve as the week continues. According to recent angler reports to ODFW Fishing Reports the trout seem to be larger this year than in recent past years. Anglers are reminded that angling methods are restricted to artificial flies and lures from Oct. 31, 2010 to May 28, 2011. A sample of redband trout and mountain whitefish are tagged with a numbered floy tag protruding from the back. Anglers who catch a trout or whitefish with a floy tag are encouraged to release the fish after recording the tag number, fish length and location caught. Anglers can send the information to ODFW at (541) 447-5111 ext. 24
