 Crane Prarie has been fihing pretty steady all summer long. Callibaetis hatch around 11:30-1:00pm. Damsel flys are out all day and using a damsel nymph can be productive throughout the whole day. Using Chironomids in the morning is the best selection. As the cooler weather rolls in the fishing will get better. Midges will be the primary food source. 

 Craine has dragonfly nymphs, damsels, callibaetis, longhorn caddis, midges, scuds, and leeches. The fish should be moving into the channels with the hot weather we get. Fishing deep is the best method when the fish are not coming to the surface.  As usual, suspended midges are one of the most productive methods, especially when the fish move into the channels. 

 Craine is fishing well right now. Expect to see Callibaetis, Longhorn Caddis, Damsels, Dragonflies, Midges, Scuds, Leeches, and Ants. An intermediate line usually helps to get down when the fish are not on top. Shouldn't be long before the fish start moving into the channels. 

 Crane Prairie has been fishing well all summer long. Callibaetis, Damsels, Leeches, and Chironomids is your best bet to pick up a big cranebow! Try fishing arond 11 am for the Callibaetis hatch and again in the evening for a caddis hatch.
