    Just watched this video. it has been fun but in this one I think you missed an opportunity. Those fish wanted a moving fly. Try skating a fly across the surface when you have fish taking on the pickup. Often times they are keying on caddis that will wake on the water, and I have had some great days doing that. Also, when you spot a fish, it is fun to get a nymph right in its face. Sometimes they won't eat but often when it is right there, they can't refuse, and it is incredibly fun to watch and catch fish that way. keep up the good work.

    Lots of places. Middle Provo is high pressure from tourists. The guides take their clients to the same places there time and again. Lower Provo gets overrun with rafters every weekend from end of May until after September. Fish the Lower and Upper Mondays through Wednesday to avoid crowds, or night fish for Browns with mouse patterns. Weber heats up pretty quick in summer, but fall Browns are fun. Lots of tight streams, like Cottonwood Creek. If it runs regular, it probably has fish in it. If you’re a poser or out of towner or you have to video everything and post it online, then we won’t tell you our favorite spots.

    Anything specific on how to rig a nymph? I’m just getting out in the water and trying to learn new things in utah. Just got my waders may get a fly rod soon. Anything helps.

    Best advice I think would be to fish 2 flys at all times. When nymphing put the heavier one as the top fly, and the smaller/lighter one trailing behind. If flys aren’t working after 30 minutes, change them, keep changing until you find success!

    When nymphing, you tie the heavier -the “point fly”- on the bottom and the dropper rig about 8 to 12 inches above that. The point fly drags the bottom and the dropper floats naturally.

    Here are all the flies you need to fish Utah: Dries: Elk Hair Caddis, Stimulator, BWO, and Adams regular and parachute. Get a rang from 16 to 22. Nymphs: Hare’s Ear Nymph, Zebra Midge in black, Baetis (trout candy), Pheasant Tail, Copper John, and a Rainbow Warrior. Sizes 16 to 22. A 4 wt. 8 foot 3 inch rod is a good all-around rod. Buy used gear off KSL, but don’t pay new gear prices. You can pretty much wet wade from late May until November. Not kidding: I wear shorts, wading socks and boots until winter. Finally, buy a decent wading staff and use it. I can personally attest it could save your life.

    There are a LOT of rattlesnakes up there on Blacksmith Fork, especially in drought years, so you’ve got to be real careful when bushwhacking there. Not my favorite place just because that.

    Go in the evening and fish a mouse pattern using a 5 weight with a 3x tippet. You won’t be disappointed.
