The Bureau of Reclamation will have a dive team inspecting the Bowman Dam for one day on 11/2/18 and will reduce flows to 25 cfs for the day.

I’d recommend not fishing the river on 11/2/18 but should be fine again for the weekend.

Whitefish are beginning to show signs of pre spawn. Fat, heavy egg layers will get busy soon. It’s a fun time to fish the Crooked with egg flies in November.

Zebra Midges, Thread Midges and small Blue Wing Olive nymphs are excellent too. Always worth your while to try a scud as well.
