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.

As a result, you may see multiple reports on the same destination if we haven't updated one of the other destinations recently.

Location
Weber River
Overview
The Weber is flowing at ~170 cfs. Nymphing will be the most productive with PMDs subsurface. When the sun hits the water try throwing hoppers near the banks. Midge patterns should work in the mornings, if its cool try caddis stuff as well. Water temps are warm closer to Echo so try to stay near Rockport.

Location
Middle Provo River
Overview
The Middle Provo flow steady at ~275 cfs. This is still a fishy flow. Fishing both a nymph rig or dry fly fishing can be productive.
Overall the fishing is good. However, some days are better than others. Dry fly fishing might not be the most productive all day, but when the PMDs hatch in the afternoon it should be better. Also try throwing a hopper. Nymphing will likely be your most productive method. Use midges and caddis nymphs in the mornings, and wait until you see PMDs to switch it up.

Location
Middle Provo River
Overview
The Middle Provo flow steady at ~485 cfs. This is a fishy flow. Fishing a nymph rig or dry fly fishing can be productive.
Fishing is great. Dry fly fishing might not be the most productive all day, but when the fish are hitting up top give it a try. They can be picky so make sure you are using lighter tippet. As always, nymphing will likely be your most productive method.

Location
Lower Provo River
Overview
The Lower Provo is now flowing at ~695 cfs out of the Deer Creek Reservoir. This flow is fishier than it has been so far this summer. Nymphing and streamers will be the most productive, but fish dries if you see them eating up top. PMDs and Caddis are out, so stick to their emerger patterns.
