Our Utah fly fishing reports offer a brief overview of current conditions on our waters. You'll find fishing reports for the main Utah rivers and streams that we guide on and fish regularly. Reports for the Lower Provo, Middle Provo, Weber River, Green River and Small Streams are included.
We write the reports based on our daily experiences on the water and information received from customers. We update the reports as conditions change and our schedule permits. If you don’t see what you are looking for, please give us a call at the shop or contact us here. We are always happy to update you with current conditions on many other Utah waters and fisheries in surrounding states as well.

Location
Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam
Overview
The Green below Flaming Gorge Dam is still flowing at 825 cfs. This fishing has been good, we are seeing some crickets, some limited Cicadas, and very good fishing overall right now. The water temperature is rising quickly, and we expect to see Yellow sallies in the lower river very soon. The crickets (regular small black ones, not the large Mormon crickets) are producing some good dry fly action and the dry and dropper fishing is good also. Nymph fishing has been excellent. The lower river has cleared and is fishable now, (this could change with thunderstorms) time for the lower B section and C section.

Location
Middle Provo River
Overview
The Middle Provo is moving at flowing at 699 cfs. While the water is high and moving quick the fishing is still good. Targeting flatter, slower moving parts of the river will be most productive. We have seen a few bugs (caddis, BWO’s) hatching sporadically throughout the day, there is not a specific hatch time. Be careful wading in the higher water.

Lower Provo River
Overview
The Lower Section of the Provo River below Deer Creek Reservoir is currently at 800 CFS. The river is moving quick, be careful wading quicker sections of water. We are not seeing too many fish looking up, nymphing will be your most productive option. Throwing flies into softer, slower water will be your best option.

Area Small Streams
Overview
Most small streams will still be difficult to access and are most likely running high and muddy. As runoff continues, you can expect those conditions to remain for some time.
