Location
Middle Provo River
Overview
“Winter” has been rolling along and the fishing has been consistent. Midges has been the primary food source and even a couple of buffalo midges have been spotted as well. Mid day has generally been the more productive time to fish, and there has been dry fly opportunities almost every day.. On the rare cloudy days there has been some streamer action especially on the lower part of the middle. For your dry fly and nymph fishing long leaders and 6x or smaller maximizes success.

Location
Middle Provo River
Overview
The middle provo has hit its winter flows of ~150cfs-130cfs. Fishing has been good on a mix of baetis and midges. From river road south up to the dam has had a decent hatch most days though timing has been variable on when it starts, most action has been from 11-3ish. The fish are still hanging out in shallow riffles as well so you dont need to only focus on the classic holes. Please avoid stepping on any redds you see.

Location
Lower Provo River
Overview
The lower provo seems to have hit its winter flow. The fishing has been good with a mix of midges and baetis, however with the drop in flow it has been super weedy. Making targeting and landing fish a challenge. Once things cool down the weed problem should disappear. Please be on the look out for redds and avoid stepping on them.
