The Middle Provo Has Awesome Fly Fishing

[@familyflyties3913]

The river has changed enough that I'm even having a harder time figuring out what section of the MP you are fishing, lol! Another great day on the MP with your bugs Bob! I'm looking forward to fishing the MP again soon!

[@TroutFlies]

MP never lets you down

[@blackflycreations]

Another great video Bob w nice fish! The weber has changed so much too, but it's fun and like you said "Fishing a new river".. Take Care my friend✌️

[@TroutFlies]

The flush is also nice. Hopefully we see the benefits over the next few years.

[@joeborgione5477]

I’ve gone up and down the Bunny Farm, River Road and Legacy. Yep it’s a new river to be sure. I’ve had stellar days and not so stellar days since the flies have gone down.

[@TroutFlies]

I'm actually kind of excited to go explore more of it. Only covered a short stretch.

[@lfactoid]

That’s for sharing your setup during your video!

[@driftstone]

Man, what a fine day of fishing. Nice slightly overcast day, big fish in the net. 🍻🍻

[@TroutFlies]

Thanks! Part 2 to come!

[@stevemd8947]

Great video. 2000 CFS will change a river landscape. Nice fish.

[@TroutFlies]

Yeah, Change is good. Need to go explore all the other sections and get a good mental map back in place.

I like your new pack. I miss ya Bob, I moved back to Oregon. I haven't fly fished since I left Utah. Too busy fishing for salmon, steelhead, black bass, lingcod, halibut, sturgeon. Stay fishy bud.

[@TroutFlies]

Where about in Oregon? I guess coast based on those species. I've spent a fair bit of time around Bend.

[@edp1801]

I'm near Portland, and fishing with big gear for big fish. I'm planning a trip to Crooked River in a couple weeks, gonna try out all your flies@@TroutFlies

[@brendonvirgil-virgilcustom8441]

Dry flies on the lower all last weekend! Hoppers and Caddis.

[@TroutFlies]

Should make my way over there at some point.

[@jaseburningham1092]

amazing video bob! can you fish the bunny and birdy royales off of an indicator? or do you find they work better euro nymphing?

[@TroutFlies]

A lot of people fish them under indicators and do well! I fish them under hopper dropper a lot.

[@bkbingham1]

I'm new to the sport, would you mind explaining what your Nymp rig setup looks like? Great content!

[@TroutFlies]

Hi Brian, I'm running a euro nymphing rig. It's a tightline rig that uses a long thin leader formula with sighter material for strike detection. The Tungsten beads built into the nymphs get the flies down on their own. My leader formula is 12 feet of 8lb Maxima Chameleon to 2 feet of .008 sighter material to a tippet ring. Then I have 4 feet of 5x to a triple surgeon's with a dropper tag then another 2 feet of 5x to the point fly.

[@bkbingham1]

@@TroutFlies Thank you sir. I fished the lower Provo earlier this month and want to try the middle next time i am up north. Bought some of your flies last night! Thanks.

[@JGTenkara]

What kind of net do you have?

[@TroutFlies]

This is a Rising Brookie net.

[@JGTenkara]

@ thanks for sharing! Almost looks like a Catch Cam net.

[@jameswyatt9377]

where are your pants from?

[@TroutFlies]

They're just some generic quick dry pants off Amazon I think.

[@patches152]

did you get a new backpack? what happened to your old black one?

[@TroutFlies]

I didn't love fishing out of the Lowepro. It's heavy and I wanted to push my setup back towards a fishing pack that can hold camera stuff versus a camera bag that you can fish out of. So I went with the Orvis Bug Out Backpack.
