Right in the heart of Utah's majestic Wasatch Mountains runs the famed Provo River. A beautiful water system with scenery that can rival just about any river in the world. "The Provo" (as it is known to locals) is home to large brown trout, healthy rainbows and beautiful cutthroats. It truly is a blue-ribbon trout stream less than an hour away from Salt Lake City.
The Provo River has three distinct sections; The Lower, Middle & Upper.
The Lower Provo River is the most popular section, and for good reason. Plunging down Provo Canyon this healthy section of tailwater has numerous deep, mysterious pools and nervous riffles. The nutrient-rich water promotes incredible hatches and grows fish of exceptional quality. The water flows are steady here and the river fishes exceptionally well year round.
The Middle Provo River meanders through beautiful Heber valley as it makes it way from Jordanelle Reservoir and into Deer Creek Reservoir. This rich tailwater boosts great insect life, including one of Utah's few Green Drake hatches. This peaceful river flows through quiet farm country and can be fished throughout the year.
The Upper Provo River changes its personality immensely from the Lower & Middle Sections, as it is more of a small stream. The river starts high in the Uintah Mountains (one of the few mountain ranges that runs from east to west) and is home to a trout grand slam; brown, brook, rainbow and cutthroat trout. Techniques and mentality change to accommodate pocket water, shallow riffles and the occasional deep pool. Due to the altitude of the Upper Provo, the fishing season in this area is limited by the weather.
