About Crooked River
Central Oregon tailwater below Bowman Dam — consistent cold releases create year-round fishing in a high desert canyon. Heavy populations of small redband rainbows and the occasional whitefish, with reliable midge and BWO action through the cold months.
Regulations
Artificial lures and flies only in the catch-and-release section below Bowman Dam. Check ODFW for current section boundaries and limits.
