Williams Fork River

Report Date: 04/30/2012
  • Very low flows right now

    Reporter: Tucker Ladd

    Flow Conditions:

    Water Clarity: clear

    Current Fishing Conditions:

    Fishing has been great, but the crowds are starting to increase on the Williams Fork with the early spring we have been experiencing.  Small stoneflies, midges, BWO's and Baetis are the key categories to focus on, in addition to the standard tailwater eggs and scuds.  Fish will be found in a variety of places from deep pools to riffes, so be willing to work a lot of water to find the feeding fish.

    Nymphs:  Mini Flash Worm 18-22, Beadwing Midge 20-24, Mercury RS2 20-22, Top Secret Midge 20-24, Rojo Midge 20-22, Pheasant Tail 18-24, Eggs, Scuds

    Dries:  Griffiths Gnat 20-22, Special Emerger 20-22, Extended Body BWO 20-22, Parachute Adams 20-22, Brooks Sprout Midge 20-24

    Streamers:  Slump Buster, Thin Mint, Sculpinator, Belly Ache Minnow, Wooly Buggers

    Seasonal Overview:

    A good fall fishing option when the flows are at or above 75cfs.
