Green River Fishing Reports

Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam

Overview

 The Green still has a fluctuation of flows during the day. The flow will spike up in the A.M. from just about 1000 cfs to ~2700 cfs and remain at the peak flow for a few hours before dropping again.

Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam

Overview

 The Green River is fishy. The flows are good at ~2280 cfs. It’s definitely the tail end of the cicada hatch, but they’re still looking for the big bug. Caddis and Yellow Sallies are on the lower river and fish are definitely starting to get interested. On A, the caddis are coming off in the evenings and PMDs are starting to show up in good numbers. Nymphing is “stupid good”.
