Techniques & Conditions Notes
Flow is in a great fishable range. Standard nymphing rigs with an indicator or euro setup will work well. Target seams, tailouts, and deeper runs.
Flow has been rising over the last 6 hours — conditions may deteriorate. Fish now before clarity decreases. Streamers and large nymphs will outperform dries in rising water.
Ideal water temp for Weber River trout. Expect great dry fly opportunities during hatch windows. Dry dropper rigs work excellently — pair a buoyant dry with a trailing nymph 12-18 inches below.
Summer evenings on the Weber are prime time. Caddis hatches can be explosive after 6pm. PMD and Yellow Sally hatches mid-morning through afternoon.
