Middle Provo River
Overview
Flows on the Middle Provo are at 315 CFS. Fishing has been productive with nymphing midges being much more productive throughout the day. The river has been fishing consistently all day with slight lulls here and there. There are some Blue Wings hatching, but the hatch is sporadic, so look for those fish looking up if you want to throw dry flies.

Overview
The Lower Provo is at about 350 CFS and the fishing is good! Early mornings we have been seeing midges, nymphing for these fish has been more productive but there is some dry fly opportunity. Around mid-day blue wings make an appearance and the dry fly fishing picks up. Around sun down the fishing slows down.

Overview
For most of the day flows are at 890cfs. There is a bump in flows to about 2100 CFS from 6pm to 11pm then dropping down to that base of 890cfs. Bwo’s are out in full force and nymphing will be your most productive option. Later in the day has been when the fish are looking up for some dry fly action, with some midge dry fly action in the mornings. Streamers have been a bit hit or miss. Streamer fishing has ben better on cloudy/rainy days

Lower Provo River
Overview
The Lower Section of the Provo River below Deer Creek Reservoir is currently at about 150 CFS. Flows have been up and down the last few weeks but the fishing has remained relatively consistent. Nymphing sow bugs has been productive during the warmer parts of the day (10am to 4pm.) Pairing a small midge or baetis above a sowbug on your nymph rig can attract some attention as well. That canyon can get pretty windy this time of year so be prepared for some chilly temps!
