Trophy Trout

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."
