Weber River Fishing Report 10/06/2020

 

Location

Weber River

Overview

The Weber River is flowing at ~190 cfs out of Rockport Dam. This a lower flow, and the moss is in the river. This can make fishing difficult, and you will have to clean off your flies every couple of drifts. If you decide to give it a shot try nymphing your typical sow bugs, tiny midges, and san juans. The current hatches are midges, caddis, and baetis. 

Latest Flows

~200 cfs below Rockport Reservoir

Middle Provo River Fishing Report 10/06/2020

 

 

 

Location

Middle Provo River

Overview

Fishing on the Middle Provo can be challenging for some right now, but the most productive method will be nymphing smaller sized flies with smaller tippet (6X). The midges are consistent, and we’re starting to see baetis on overcast days or in the afternoons. The streamer bite is right around the corner so might as well start throwing some. The caddis are out too, and we are seeing both olive and grey. 

Latest Flows

Dam: ~335 cfs.

Charleston: ~ 321cfs.
