Provo River Fly Fishing Guides

Tied in Utah

Hand-Tied Flies

Every fly used on a guided trip is hand-tied locally. We tie what works on the Provo and the Weber, in the patterns and sizes that match what's actually hatching.

Hand-Tied Flies

Trevor's been tying flies for over twenty years. The patterns we fish are dialed for Utah tailwaters — small midges and BWOs for the Middle Provo, bigger stones and streamers for the Lower, sow bugs and scuds for the Weber.

If you fish with us, your guide ties on whatever the river is asking for that day. If you want to take some home — or order custom — we tie to request.
