In western fly-fishing history, Utah’s Green River is just a new born, yet among fly fishers it rivals Montana, Idaho and Wyoming’s most famous trout fishing rivers. Western Rivers Flyfisher is one of only a handful of Green River Guide Services that are permitted to guide on this incredible trout fishery. Since 1986 Western Rivers Flyfisher has had this privilege, making Western Rivers Flyfisher one of the Green’s oldest and established fly-fishing guide services.
Utah’s Green River is one of the countries most consistent dry fly fisheries. Combine this attribute with its spectacular scenery, and you will experience one of the west's most dynamic fisheries. Its cold clear currents are home to an abundance of Cutthroat Trout, Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout. From below Flaming Gorge Dam to the Colorado border you’ll drift fish through a labyrinth of red canyon walls and alluvial terraces as the Green Rivers trout scurry from beneath your boat. Although aquatic hatches are limited when compared to many of Utah’s and the west's other prolific waters, the famous Cicada combined with a handful of other land based terrestrials and aquatic hatches:Blue Wing Olives, PMD's, Yellow Sallies and a varitey of caddisflies, provides incredibly consistent dry fly fishing throughout most of the year.

The Green River begins to fish well and with consistency by the end of March when springs Blue Wing Olives start to emerge. This prolific mayfly also ends our season in the cooler fall months. In between, the Green River offers one of the west’s longer trout fly-fishing seasons. Although it is open year round, from the end of March to the end of September is really the best and most reliable part of the year. There are few rivers that yield such trout fishing consistency, nor opportunites in the west.

Trout fishing waters have a peak season or hatch, and for those who frequent the Green, if you should ask, most flyfishers would probably refer to June's Cicada hatch as being the best time to fish this river. Similar to most super hatches; Salmon Flies, Green Drakes, Brown Drakes and the like, they attract the largest of trout from the cool depths of their rivers, yet these fatal attractions also draw out the masses. The Green Rivers Cicada hatch can generate some of the rivers very best fly-fishing there are other times on the Green River that offer consistent fly-fishing opportunities with far fewer anglers.
