Location

Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam

Overview:  Some Big Dry action

Flows have come up and the daily average is now around 1800 CFS. Flows start at 1100 in the morning and bump up to 2350 at the dam around 11 am every morning another bump takes it up to 2429 at 5 pm. Midges and BWO’s are still hatching. The fishing changes each day when the water comes up. Keep in mind it takes a while for the bump in water to reach all the way down to section C. During the morning hours or during the periods of low (1100) cfs the fish are working on small midges and BWO nymphs, we have been getting them on shallow rigs and deep rigs. After the water comes up the fish seem to want larger nymphs Scuds, worms, and using a larger BWO Nymph has worked also. We were very happy to also have some good days on the larger dries last week fish were looking up and we were able to get good action on the lower river with the MFC para-cricket. Streamer are still fishing well at times try them late in the day if you are out for an afternoon and evening float.
