Area Small Streams
Overview
Utah’s many small streams are beginning to show signs of spring right now. Midges and blue wings are the main hatch right now, but you can also see some caddis activity and some tiny black stones. Fish are starting to become much more active with the warmer temperatures. Now is a great time to get out and explore some off the beaten path haunts. We haven’t had much snow this year, but be wary of snow drifts and mud when you are driving around. A few fisherman are known to drive into fishing holes and get stuck on the way out this time of the year due to the ground thawing throughout the day. Also if you are on a freestone stream, know that as runoff occurs throughout the day it will discolor the water and turn the fishing off with the murky conditions.
