Green River Fishing Report

June 3, 2010.

Flows are currently at 4660 cfs, but the flows will soon be starting to ramp down from the annual 4600 cfs releases to simulate the runoff before the construction of Flaming Gorge Dam in the 60's.

Its spring time here now , so midging activity seems to be a sure bet now, with the streamers working well too. Nymphing is good with small baetis imitations; WD40s, RS2s, PT and midges.

As things start to warm up, expect to see some good dry fly action on calm days with baetis imitations, mostly small para Adams, Griffith's Gnats and Thorax Blue Duns.

FORECAST FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AHEAD- RATED 6.0

This week's "Hot Six Flies":

The flies mentioned below suggest the available trout food and their imitations. Each week I will list the top six flies that were productive from the week before. The danger here is that things change from week to week, so while trends in fly selection can be consistent, keep in mind they do also change with current fishing conditions.

  • Tungsten Zebra Midges 16-22 black, red, gray, brown
  • Para Adams 20-24
  • Griffith's Gnat, 22, tie with florescent post for visibility
  • RS2's and WD 40's grey, olive or wine #18-24 as droppers
  • Streamers #2-6 Buggers in tan, black, olive, Goldilox Buggers, Double Bunnies, etc.
