Fly Fishing Crane Creek Missouri
Crane Creek is a true spring creek known for its pure strain of wild McCloud River rainbow trout. This tiny stream is protected mostly by the fact it is difficult to fish. Most anglers will choose to fish one of Missouri’s stocked streams or drive south to one of the nearby tailwaters such as Tanneycomo or the White River in Arkansas. That is the blessing that keeps the little stream from receiving more pressure than it could probably handle. It is thought to be one of the only places left with the pure strain of California’s McCloud River redband rainbow trout.
Flies and artificial lures only can be used to fish the stream and the daily creel limit is one trout over 18 inches. You won’t see many on a stringer, that’s for sure.
The stream, tightly enclosed by trees in many areas, stays cool throughout hot summer days. When you need to make fairly long, accurate presentations using light leaders and tippet, the tree limbs makes casting a real challenge. There are areas of the stream where the stream is not so tightly enclosed but you will probably find they hold the least number of trout. The ones in the easy to access, open areas are very used to seeing anglers and flies. Fooling them can be an even greater challenge. Wherever you fish this wonderful little one-of-a-kind trout stream, please provide it all the care it rightly deserves.
Fly Fishing Guide to Crane Creek:
This is not an easy stream to fish. This little stream is a tributary of the James River. It flows through the little town of Crane Missouri in the middle of dairy farming country. You want find any fly shops down the street and you may not find many local anglers willing to reveal their secrets about fishing this stream. In fact, many of them would just as soon you went on down the road to one of the tailwaters in Branson or across the state line in Arkansas.
The trout are the pure strain McCloud rainbow trout but that isn’t what makes much difference in so far as being able to catch them. A wild rainbow trout is a wild rainbow trout. It is the stream itself that take a lot of getting used to. It is a fragile little spring fed stream that like all other spring creeks, is difficult to catch trout from or at least on a consistent basis. That is a good thing it has going for it because if it were not for that, it would probably be highly pressured. Its “flies only” and “catch and release” regulations help, for sure.
Naturally, stealth is very important, but there is a lot more to it than that. You must get close enough to a trout to present your fly without being seen. That isn’t easy to do in Crane Creek. There is nothing to hide behind except trees and bushes and that is where you fly will end up most of the time trying to do just that.
Making a cast in Crane Creek is difficult, much less doing it in a manner that a trout a few feet from you isn’t going to see you. Another problem is that these little rainbows have a lot of places they can hide. They will go to the bottom of a pool or they will get behind a clump of tree limbs that have fell into the water.
Wherever you find one, it seems like it is impossible to get a fly to it without hanging up or spooking the trout. Some of this stream flows underground and is a problem many are worried about. It is also a fact that even though it has excellent shade in most places from the tree limbs enclosing it, it can still get rather warm. Some of the trees have been planted along the stream, indicating a lot of effort has been put forth to sustain the fishery. The spring water comes out of the ground at about 55 degrees year-round, but it doesn’t have to flow far on a hot summer day to get warm and in some places, too warm for the trout.
The fishing is far more difficult when the water is low and clear. It is easier to catch trout when it is high and slightly off color. That is one tip that may be worth more than all the others we come give you. If you can get by with it, don’t wade. Cast from the banks. In many places this is impossible but it will keep from spooking the trout as much when you can cast from the banks. As a final tip, I will say that this is a very good place to use a bow and arrow cast.
Crane Creek Hatches and Trout Flies:
Our information on aquatic insects is based on our stream samples of larvae and nymphs, not guess work. We base fly suggestions on imitating the most plentiful and most available insects and other foods at the particular time you are fishing. Unlike the generic fly shop trout flies, we have specific imitations of all the insects in Crane Creek and in all stages of life that are applicable to fishing. If you want to fish better, more realistic trout flies, have a much higher degree of success, give us a call. We not only will help you with selections, you will learn why, after trying Perfect Flies, 92% of the thousands of our customers will use nothing else. 1-800-594-4726
The hatches on Crane Creek are diverse and numerous. One of the first to start the year out is always the mighty midge. They are very abundant thanks to the soft bottom. There are burrowing red blood worm midges and light green midges by the zillions.
Blue-winged Olives are the first mayflies to hatch. They can show up in January but are more plentiful in February and March. Look for them to continue into April and May but they will be different and larger species. There’s also a late season hatch in September and October.
Little Black caddis show up in April and early May. Cinnamon Caddis start hatching in June and continue through the Summer through late September. Green Sedges are also plentiful in Crane Creek. The rock worms, or larvae of the Green Sedge or Green Caddisfly is worth imitating year-round.
You will find sowbugs and some scuds in the stream. These can be imitated year-round with good success at times. Sculpin, several species of dace and other baitfish are also plentiful.
Terrestrial insects are plentiful along the banks of Crane Creek. Craneflies, both the aquatic and the terrestrial variety are also plentiful. Ants, beetles and grass hoppers make up the majority of the terrestrial variety. These become more important in the summer months when fewer aquatic insects are hatching
The trout in this little stream can be very selective and we are certain that you will find the more realistic imitations at Perfect Fly are a huge help in fly fishing Crane.
