Fall has been good on the Provo this year. Its dropped down to winter flows and that has made the river very accessible.
The dry fly fishing on the Middle has been consistent with midges and BWOs coming off late in the mornings and staying through the afternoon. There has been some caddis and psuedos mixed in as well.
Nymph fishing remains productive on the Provo. In the mornings try sow bugs and midges. As the day progresses start switching to BWOs and midge emergers
Streamers have also been working well.
Please be on the look out for spawning fish and redds.
