Location Weber River Overview Weber River staying pretty steady for now at ~400 cfs. Fishing can be tough in certain spots, but nymphing will be the most productive.

Location Middle Provo River Overview The Middle Provo flow is trending down. As of right now it is coming out of the dam at ~990 cfs. This flow is still a bit swift so continue to use caution when wading. Fishing is getting better overall. Dry fly fishing might not be the most productive, but give it a try in the slower water if you are determined to fish up top. Nymphing will likely be your most productive method. The fish are hugging the bank in most spots, so consider taking a step back and fish closer to the sides. Latest Flows Dam: ~990 cfs Charleston: ~1156 cfs Fishing Good, getting better.

Location Middle Provo River Overview The Middle Provo went up again since our last report, but its trending back down and right now it is at ~1500 cfs so continue to be cautious when near the river. This flow is very high and the water is swift. Dry fly fishing, if any, will only be in the slow water. The fish are holding anywhere they can catch a break from the flow, so nymph in slower water as well. Keep fishing the flies from your "junk food collection" AKA Sow Bugs, San Juan Worms, Wigglies, Squirmies, Scuds, and some midges or caddis nymphs. Small and Medium sized streamers tend to work when the water is higher.

Location Weber River Overview Weber River flows went way up since our last report, but are on the way back down currently at ~728cfs. It is tough fishing. If you nymph you will need a lot of weight. Streamers might be worth a shot. They usually produce more fish in heavier flows.
