Location

Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam

Overview

The Green is flowing around 860 cfs out of the Flaming Gorge Dam. No news yet on when the river will be bumped. The water temp has changed about 5 degrees and the fish seem to be more active. The baetis are still significant. The nymphing is consistently good during the baetis hatch. Small cicadas and flying ants have started to show up so try the bigger dries in your box. Dry flies, emergers, and nymphs have all been productive. Streamer fishing can still be productive below Red Creek.

Lower Provo River Fishing Report 5/19/2021

 

 

Location

Lower Provo River

Overview

The Lower Provo is flowing at ~484 cfs right now. This is somewhat high so be cautious when wading. Nymphing should be the most productive. Try out your baetis, sows, and caddis nymphs. The slow and deep pools are not the only place holding fish, so try out some of the less popular water if an angler is in your “go-to” spot.

Fishing

Good

Current Hatches

Midges (size 20 and smaller)

Baetis (size 22-18)

Caddis (16-20)

Best Techniques

Nymphing
