"I have no mortal use for a fisherman who will try to reap the pleasures of the evening rise without having first prepared his soul and humbled himself by ceaseless effort when the fish riseth not."

Greetings fellow anglers, I always look forward to this particular Utah Fly Fishing report. The reasons are that Utah's Trout Streams and Rivers are on the beginning curve of good things to come. Let me explain, in recent days spent on the middle and lower Provo River winter conditions have remained, for those of you that read our fishing report regularly you understand. The small adult midge continues to provide at times decent dry fly fishing. The nymph fishing has been good one day and poor the next. During the days I spent guiding last week, the takes were very subtle. THAT CONDITION IS ABOUT TO CHANGE. While kicking thru winter's deep snow I began to notice the insect that changes everything. Provo Rivers Buffalo Midge is a great little bug. Compared to its smaller cousins we all have been straining our eyes to see, the Buffalo Midge can be as large as #18. Starting around the middle of February this larger midge will begin their daily emergence. Once they begin the daily ritual every Provo River Trout gets busy; first chasing the pupa, followed by sticking their noses out to capture the full meal deal.
This is spring fever time, dust of your fly rod, patch the holes in your waders, and be sure to spread the sun screen. It is time to fish.
ATTENTION: Here is another heads up for all you long roaders. My personal favorite season is coming soon to the Provo River near you. The hatch of all hatches, Blue Wing Olives, BWO, or if you speak Latin you would call it Baetis. Starting the mid part of March, rivers and streams across the Western U.S will become home to this beautiful Mayfly. Blue Wing Olives spring activity is nature's way of reenergizing the Riparian corridor of a rivers environment. Fish and birds alike gorge themselves on this tasty little morsel.
For those that want to experience this wonderment. Mid- March is the time to get started. We all can expect to enjoy this great hatch as late as the start of spring run-off mid- May.
At this time I would like to thank all of our loyal customers that frequent our little fly shop. If it was not for your support we would not be able to continue to enhance your days on the water. Where ever you may live, support your local fly shop.
