Green River Fly Fishing Report
November 13th, 2024
Please respect the Redds !
The fish are in pre-spawn mode and very close to full spawn mode. Please do not stand on or anchor on the Redds!
The streamer bite on the Green River has been solid in the past couple weeks! The morning bite has been slow, but the action picks up as the weather warms up. On sunny days, Terrestrials, big and small are still producing. Psuedocleoen (tiny BWO's) are currently a large part of the trout's diet - they are hatching in the afternoons. The takes on nymphs are soft and subtle - bring your A Game.
