SIX- Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, May 16, 1990 EASTERN OREGON OUTDOORS h> M ark Hagelt Trophy Trout Lake Kicks Out Lunker Largemouths What? A state record largemouth bass from a high-elevation trout lake? Get real. But that's what many experienced anglers are predicting will happen in the near future at Crane Prairie Reser voir, some 45 miles southwest of Bend The 4.600-foot-high reservoir, which has long been a favorite of trophy trout seekers for the 10-pound-plus rainbows and four to five-pound brook trout it is capable of producing is gaining in popularity with eastern Oregon bass fishermen as well. “ There’s some big old boys in there,” says Mickey Wolfe, a former fishing guide at the reservoir for six years. “ The very first bass I ever saw come out of Crane Prairie Reservoir was in 1983 and it was 5 'h pounds. There’s some 10, 12-pound bass in there (now).” The new state record largemouth will have to outweigh the current 11-pound. 4.6-ounce title holder taken by Joe Pool in 1988 from Lost Creek Lake near Medford. “ I’ve had two of them on,” said Tom Sack, a Redmond-based bass fisherman and sporting goods merchant who fishes Crane Prairie regular ly. He continued that although he believes many trophy-class bass reside in the reservoir, most are of a size which may fall somewhat short of wall- hanger stature but still provide plenty of sport. “ An average fish is a two-pounder—two pounders are really common, four-pounders are very common, and anything above that is getting into an exceptional class,” Sack said. Despite the recent scuttlebutt, Ted Fies, the Oregon Department Fish and Wildlife district fisheries biologist from Bend, remains dubious as to whether or not Crane Prairie actually holds a state record bass, claiming the largest bass witnessed by department officials weighed in at about seven pounds. I don’t think it will be in the next year or two, but there’s certainly some very, very nice bass in there. But it’s certainly got the potential; the food is there, the cover is there, and the bass are growing nicely. We haven't seen anything that (record) size yet but, yes. it's possible, sure. “ The bass biologists tell me that the scales they’ve read from those bass at Crane Prairie show a growth rate that's as good or better than anything in the state and. well, that’s kind of surprising when you think about the fact that it’s up there at almost 5000 feet in elevation.” Fies accredits the rapid growth rate to an abundance of baitfish—Tui chubs, or roach, as they’re sometimes called-which are in seemingly endless supply and are available in a variety of sizes to sustain virtually all age classes of bass there. So—which lures work best? “ That's real easy,” said Sack. “ Just about anything you want to put in the water. I’ve caught fish up there on just about everything-jig and pig, plastic worms, crankbaits, grubs-you name it, I’ve caught them on it. It’s ‘to each his own’ up there; it just depends on what you’re used to.” Most successful anglers look for bass along the cast side of the lake fromt he resort down to the dam, and along the opposite shore from the dam up to Rock Creek. At full pool (which is rare) the maximum depth at Crane Prairie is about 20 feet, with an average depth of 11 feet. Hence, use shallow-water tactics. When the lake was impounded in 1922, the trees inside the flood plane were left standing. Today, that inundated timber—either still standing or that which has fallen—provides unequalled habitat for both the large bass and large trout. “ It’s probably one of the premier bass lakes in the state right now,” said former guide Mickey Wolfe, “ and it's going to stay that way, too."
