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 Good news! The middle has dropped down to 300 CFS. This is a much more wadable flow and a lot closer to what we're used to this time of year. That being said there are plenty of bugs on the river. We have seen Caddis, PMD's (still), BWO's, and plenty of midges. There are still some hoppers bouncing around, but that eat is starting to slow down. Nymphing small flies (22-26) is still your most productive option, but there is plenty of dry fly opportunity throughout the day. The middle of the day has been a little more consistent, with bug hatches being pretty random and sporadic.

Location Weber River Overview The Weber has been dropped down to it's winter flow of about 30 CFS. This time of year we try to avoid being on the river while the brown trout spawn. At these low flows it is much easier to put stress on the fish, especially for the next month or so while the spawn is happening. We expect flows to come back up in the springtime. Less water means less oxygen and less places for fish to reside, be respectful and patient on this fishery! Latest Flows ~30 Fishing conditions N/A Current Hatches N/A Best Time Of Day N/A
Location Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam Overview Flows are sitting at about 800 CFS all day long. We are seeing more fish stacked up in bigger pools at these lower flows. There are some tricos throughout the day, but are starting to wane. Same goes for the hoppers, fishing hoppers during the warmest part of the day will be the most productive. There are some spawning reds starting to appear, make sure to keep a close eye on where you are walking if you are wading as to not step on any of those beds.

Location Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam Overview From 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. flows are sitting around 1600 CFS. Dry fly fishing has been good with lulls throughout the day. Nymphing has been just as productive as well. We have been seeing less hatch bugs (Caddis and PMD's) on the water on any given day, but fishing small terrestrials has been productive.

Location Weber River Overview The Weber is currently flowing at 200 CFs below the Rockport Dam. Fishing has been good with nymphing being your most productive option. There is some dry fly opportunity throughout the day, but hunt for those rising fish. Early mornings have been most productive fishing midges until PMD's start moving around. There are caddis on the water, but the hatch is very sporadic. On most warm days the water temps are getting pretty warm the further down stream you go.
