Location
Green River Below Flaming Gorge Dam
Overview
Streamer fishing on the Green has been excellent. The river has a fluctuation of flows during the day. The flow will spike in the A.M. from just about 1300 cfs to ~2500 cfs and remain at the peak flow for a few hours before dropping again. The fishing will be better when the river is higher so try to get out when the flows are peaking.
