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 Middle Provo River Overview The flows on the Middle Provo River have finally come down to a normal flow of 300 CFS. Water temps are good and the river is much more navigable. Hatches have stayed relatively the same with Caddis and PMD's hatching throughout the day. There is a lull in hatches from around 3:00 to roughly 5:00 during the warmest part of the day. We are seeing the end of the Green Drake hatch, but you may still find some fish here and there throughout the day willing to eat one.

Location Middle Provo River Overview The flows on the Middle Provo have been bumped back up 20 about 720 CFS. We have mostly been seeing Caddis and PMD's on any given day. There are a few Yellow Sallies around throughout the day. Green Drakes have been spotted on the lower parts of the river, and we expect to see them moving upstream soon. Nymphing has still been the most productive option.

Location Weber River Overview The Weber has been fishing good. Some Yellow sallies are hatching and some PMD's as well as caddis. The nymph fishing has been very good, just like the Provo, finding good water is the most challenging part of the day. They are still eating the sow bug consistently throughout the day, with PMD's and Yellow Sallies being effective in the morning. Flows have been fluctuating between250 CFS and 160 CFS, but the fishing has stayed consistent. Nymphing will be your most productive option.

The Cricket fishing has been our go to for the last few days as well as some caddis and yellow sallies throughout the day. Fish are pushing closer to the banks.
