- Decent winter fly fishing activity on the Crooked River and Prineville Reservoir fly fishing early January 2020 in Central Oregon, near Prineville, Oregon, which is a 40 minute drive from Bend, Oregon. Temps in the upper 30's. Short lighted days, and cold temps limit fishing, but I managed to put in a little over an hour on the crooked, and an hour up on the reservoir...almost caught a beast rainbow trout.
BONUS clip towards the end.
I tied up my first Nymph pattern on the go and had lots of bites on it. I'll cover a few flies to use when out there, and a few methods I use successfully while fishing out there.

Thanks,glad to see a younger generation interest in fly fishing & tying,love your simple approach to the sport,been fishing a long time & need a reminder of getting back to the K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid) approach,good luck on your tying & fishining adventures,tight lines & bent rods
I love fishing the crooked. I live in bend and tie flies as well. I like using size 18/20 elk hair caddis skipped below me.
It's always a great feeling to catch a fish on a fly you have tied yourself. 1 quick tip on tying tilt your fly slightly downward in your vice just enough to keep your bead against the eye of the hook. Good luck on your channel.
I found that setting the drag on your spinning set up...just a little below breaking point of your line will help keep those big ones from escaping. Not sure if you did or not. I just never heard any drag noise in the video.
Are you a Prineville resident.....We just moved here and would love to know more about where all the good fishing is. Thanks again.
Many times when I fish downstream and the fish hit the fly because of the direction it pulls it out of their mouth. I get much better hook-up rates when I cast flies upstream because when I set the hook it pulls it toward their mouth. Try it. I think you'll have the same results.
Headed there next week, super helpful video. Thanks!
Thank you! This makes my day. Should be great fishing. Tight lines!
Congrats on your first fish on a fly you tied! Pretty sure Prineville Reservoir doesn’t have lake trout though.
Thanks!
The reservoir has trout, I've cought quite a few medium sized, and I've hooked 2 in the 20" size or bigger but haven't netted one yet. Saw a guy who had 3 one day....left me scratching my head.
Nice fish handling!
Thank!
Was there 2 days ago, worked a school of like 50 whitefish, they only wanted small nymphs. I struggled to hook them. Though they bit like crazy. Fun fun. Landed one 12" whitey
@@MTsubfly My favorite is Lone Pine... but then again, the Crooked River has so many beautiful spots!
