Location Weber River Overview The Weber river below Rockport has come down to a very fishable flow. It is currently running around 200 cfs, but that could change up a bit. The runs have changed up considerably so dont expect your favorite piece of water to fish the way it used to. The fishing has been decent the closer you get to Coalville-most of our guides are having success nymphing with PMD's, caddis, sowbugs and midges. Don't rule out PMD dries as we have been seeing a handful of risers out there-nothing consistent yet, but if you work for it, you should be able to find a few fish on top. There are still a few yellow sally's and golden stones flying around as well.

Location Area Small Streams Overview The time we have all been waiting for is finally on our doorstep! Our local small streams have started to shape up as the runoff has begun to subside. The freestones have really come down in flow and are running cool, clear and ready to fish. With this seasons mega runoff expect your favorite runs to have changed considerably-It's a great time to get out and explore the rivers to find a few new "favorite runs." Some of the smaller tail waters are still running a tad higher than normal, but are fishing well enough to make the trip out worth it. Expect to see some really nice hatches over the next few weeks. Make sure you have plenty of Green Drakes, Golden Stones, and Yellow Sally's, but make sure you don't rule out PMD's and Caddis-especially later in the day. It is also not a bad idea to throw terrestrials like beetles, ants and crickets between the hatches.

Location Area Small Streams Overview Most of the high alpine freestone streams and lakes in the Uintas are frozen over and unfishable. Some of the smaller tailwaters are running low and clear. You might come across a caddis, blue wing olive, or midge hatch. Ice off is happening on a lot of local lakes, which can mean some excellent streamer fishing as well as some good dry dropper fishing with terrestrials and callebeatis.

Location Weber River Overview The Weber below Rockport is running a little high and off color for this time of year. However, caddis are on the water.

Look for risers in soft seams along the banks as well as anywhere where there is some sort of overhanging shrub.
