Open to fishing all year below Bowman Dam. Anglers report excellent fishing for trout. ODFW staff conducted annual fish population monitoring on the Crooked River June 24-27th between Big Bend and Cobble Rock Campgrounds and found good numbers of whitefish and fair numbers of trout in the 10-14-inch range.

Crooked River anglers may encounter bull trout now that there is volitional passage at Opal Springs. Anglers who catch a bull trout should release it unharmed and report their catch to the US Fish and Wildlife Service at crookedbulltrout@fws.gov.
