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.
Following are the latest reports in descending order of when they were last updated. As a result, you may see multiple reports on the same destination if we haven't updated one of the other destinations recently.

Small stream fishing has been good, some streams are fishing better than others. Water temps across the board seem to be pretty stable and consistent. We are seeing some PMD’s, Caddis, and hoppers. Early mornings and afternoons have been some of the more productive hours (before and after the highest heat times of the day.)

Overview
The Green below Flaming Gorge Dam is still flowing at 825 cfs with a bump in flows up to 1500 cfs at 4 p.m.. This fishing has been good, we are seeing crickets, some limited Cicadas, and very good fishing overall right now. With the water temps rising, we have been seeing more and more fish looking up. The Cricket fishing has been our go to for the last few days as well as some caddis and yellow sallies throughout the day. Fish are pushing closer to the banks.

Middle Provo River
Overview
We are starting to see flows come down on the Middle Provo, with the dam release this morning being at 623 CFS. There is still a large amount of water moving through the river, but it is getting better day by day. There are some Caddis and PMD’s on the surface, but there isn’t a specific hatch yet, bugs are sporadic. That being said, nymphing has been productive throughout all times of the day. Water temps are still very cold, as soon as those come up, we should start seeing more consistent hatches.

Location
Weber River
Overview
The Weber has been fishing good. Some Yellow sallies are hatching and some PMD’s. The nymph fishing has been very good, just like the Provo, finding good water is the most challenging part of the day. They are still eating the sow bug consistently throughout the day, with PMD’s and Yellow Sallies being effective in the morning. Flows have been fluctuating between 300 CFS and 250 CFS, but the fishing has stayed consistent. Nymphing will be your most productive option.
