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 Middle Provo is moving at flowing at 699 cfs. While the water is high and moving quick the fishing is still good. Targeting flatter, slower moving parts of the river will be most productive. We have seen a few bugs (caddis, BWO’s) hatching sporadically throughout the day, there is not a specific hatch time. Be careful wading in the higher water.

Location
Lower Provo River
Overview
The Lower Section of the Provo River below Deer Creek Reservoir is currently at 800 CFS. The river is moving quick, be careful wading quicker sections of water. We are not seeing too many fish looking up, nymphing will be your most productive option. Throwing flies into softer, slower water will be your best option.

Overview
Most small streams will still be difficult to access and are most likely running high and muddy. As runoff continues, you can expect those conditions to remain for some time.

Area Small Streams
Overview
Most small streams this time of year will be very difficult to access, closed, or frozen over. If you would like to get in some smaller water action, check out the Upper Provo as there are some areas that are easy to access and fish.

Location
Lower Provo River
Overview
The Lower Provo is flowing at about 500 CFS. Plenty of midges moving around with some BWO’s here and there. Access can be difficult with the snow and the high water but fishing has been productive. Same as the middle, but target the slower moving sections of the river. Nymping will be the most productive method.
