Green River Fishing Report
July 11, 2008
The Green is dropping and clearing as of this writing, with the flow at Warren bridge currently at 1,550 cfs. It is starting to fish well, and we expect this to continue to improve as the river drops and clears. Many anglers who know the Green well will tell you this is one of the best times to hit it. Grey drakes, PMD’s and caddis are being seen in good numbers, along with the occasional Golden stone and some smaller Green stones.
Recommended patterns include; Grey Drake Extended Body #10 – 12, Parachute PMD #14, Cat Puke Golden Stone #6-8, Elk Hair Caddis #10 – 12, Yellow Stimulator #8 – 10, Green River Flying Ant # 12 – 14. Streamers are also working well now – McCune’s Sculpin #4 – 6, Gartside’s Streamer (in black and yellow/brown) # 4, Galloup’s Wooly Sculpin #4 – 6.
The good news is that with the water we’ve had so far this year, combined with the fact that the Green is still running at over 1,500 cfs approaching mid-July, we’re optimistic that the Green will remain fishable and floatable through the summer.

See you on the water,
