Crystal Creek is a rare and intimate spring creek, tucked roughly nine miles north of Upper Klamath Lake. Fed by cold, constant springs, it draws large Upper Klamath Redbands into its clear flows throughout spring, summer, and fall.
These fish are strong, selective, and unforgiving, and the fishing here rewards patience, careful observation, and deliberate presentations. Every cast matters. For anglers who value subtlety and challenge, Crystal Creek offers some of the most demanding and memorable fishing in the basin.
Clients of Guided Waters Fly Fishing enjoy private access to this exceptional water, allowing for a quiet, unhurried experience on a creek that remains largely unseen and lightly fished.
Peter Bowers, owner of the Patient Angler in Bend, Oregon ties into a nice one.
