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.

Small Streams Fishing Report 05/15/2022

 

Location

Area Small Streams

Overview

Many of our small streams are still to hard to reach due to snow at higher altitude. That being said some of the small streams that we can reach have been fishing well. Our normal is not to give our small stream locations here but understand that if you do stop by the shop we have some good intel on the small stream fishing and it has been good in some places.

With all the shakeup over private vs. public water access our guides have decided to fish more on the Middle so if the Lower report seems brief, it is. Try Sow bugs, BWO nymphs.

Weber River Fishing Report 05/15/2022

 

Location

Weber River

Overview

The Weber is flowing much better now,  despite more Dam problems at Rockport (another couple hours of no water release 0 CFS ). Reports of some Mother’s day caddis hatches on the lower part of the Mid-Weber. This would be a good time to fish all the sections of the Weber Nymphs and dries and be prepared for Mothers day Caddis, we have also been getting them on sow bugs and some large midge larvae.

Green River Fishing Report 05/15/22

 

 

Location

Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam

Overview:  Some Big Dry action

Flows have come up and the daily average is now around 1800 CFS. Flows start at 1100 in the morning and bump up to 2350 at the dam around 11 am every morning another bump takes it up to 2429 at 5 pm. Midges and BWO’s are still hatching. The fishing changes each day when the water comes up. Keep in mind it takes a while for the bump in water to reach all the way down to section C. During the morning hours or during the periods of low (1100) cfs the fish are working on small midges and BWO nymphs, we have been getting them on shallow rigs and deep rigs. After the water comes up the fish seem to want larger nymphs Scuds, worms, and using a larger BWO Nymph has worked also. We were very happy to also have some good days on the larger dries last week fish were looking up and we were able to get good action on the lower river with the MFC para-cricket. Streamer are still fishing well at times try them late in the day if you are out for an afternoon and evening float.
