Weber River Fishing

Weber River Fishing Report

Spring is almost here and the days are much warmer than they have been. This has been making the fish a whole lot happier. Above Rockport Reservoir, the Weber is beginning to open up and flow around 75 CFS, but the daytime heat is causing snow to melt and the river to become cloudy with runoff as the day progresses. Water releases from Rockport Reservoir are at 175 CFS. By Coalville the river is flowing at 251 CFS. Below Echo Reservoir the Weber is flowing at 275 CFS. The river is flowing at 348 CFS along I 84 near Mountain Green and at 497 CFS once it gets to Ogden. Current snowpack in the Weber River Drainage is sitting at 91 percent of normal.

Flows along the Weber River are great for fishing right now, making it a viable option to sneak away from the crowds on the Provo River. You might not see a midge hatch or Baetis hatch as thick as you can find elsewhere, but you will find a lot more solitude.

If you are fishing the Weber, bring sow bugs (16-18), zebra midges (18-22), other assorted midges (18-24), Baetis nymphs (18-20), caddis larva (16-18), and some small streamers like a Zonker or Sculpzilla in white, olive, or black.
