In my opinion that section of the Weber fishes much better at lower flows. That allows you to see the seams and pockets where the most fish are holding. Most cutts in the Weber are caught in the first mile or two from the mouth of the canyon. In the spring the white fish are more active and if fishing small nymphs can make up a large percentage of the catch. Like many other streams and rivers in Utah, timing and water flows can be crucial to success rates. Always nice to get out and wet a line whenever!
Awesome video! I’m new to Ogden from Texas and I’m trying to figure out this whole fly fishing thing lol. We don’t fly fish much in Texas, so it has been a learning experience to say the least. These videos are helping a lot though man! I appreciate it!
Good stuff Brody! We fish & film sum of the same waters! Been a sub for a couple months now but enjoying this series. As I'm sure you know that zone can be really good wen the stars align. I'll try and comment more often to help you rank "I normally watch UA-cam on my TV".. Anyways looking forward to the rest of this series! Take care dude✌️ Steve
I agree the Weber gets its fair share of pressure. Don't forget about the whities re: fish diversity. That river has some big 'ns! Love this series! Thanks
Don’t miss your opportunity here and short change the rating based on one adventure. You really ought to have more content before a fisherman like me can take your rating seriously. Ive fished a lot of these rivers extensively, and I’d love to see this series turned up a notch
Thanks for the Comment Dylan! I'd like to understand it a bit better. I too think this series has great potential. What do you mean by short change my rating? And how can I get more viewership out of an experienced fly fisherman, such as yourself???
Hey man! Just stumbled upon this series this afternoon, and I’ve got to say that I really like it! I’m in Oregon so I don’t really have any skin in the game 😅 however, having fished the middle Provo last spring, it is really inspiring me to go find some smaller, less pressured water the next time I visit salt lake! Tight lines 😊
there is tons of less pressured smaller streams, especially if youre willing to drive an extra hour or two from the middle provo, do some bluelining in the national forests and youll find a lot to check out!!
I’ve tried different sections of the Ogden and Weber and have yet to have luck with anything. Any advice helps. I’m not using a fly rod though. As matter of fact the Weber runs about an acre from our backyard and we have difficult shoreline acess at best.
Those fall colors were awesome, great video. I didn't know the Utah rivers accessibility was like that, I'm luckily fly fishing in Montana - you should check out one of our videos sometime!
Thanks! Technically the lower Weber is anything below echo reservoir. Between rockport and echo is the middle. Then anything above rockport is the upper Weber.
Usually I’d be mad about people making content on these sections, but it’s been so blown out with people the last 7 years that I’ve lost interest in it completely. Less fish per mile which made the quality of fish much better but now it all has too much pressure, and fishes completely different.

I've had similar experience with the flow. That section has been super discolored all summer, and fishing has been OK at best. Thanks for the comment!
Just caught a tiger there today

This is my exact spot I go all the time! Nobody else come here! 😂

use small rapala countdowns and black maribou jigs!
RAPALA..... rainbow or brown
My PB is 58 trout in a day on the middle Weber 🥺 Curious to try the lower section!
That's a TON of fish! I haven't ever had much luck on the middle .

What do you consider the lower weber? Like from what area to what area. I fish the weber often and dont recognize this area! Great video

Can you fish that river a way besides fly fishing? Don’t know how to fly fish yet
Hi Brody
Hello Myles.
Usually I’d be mad about people making content on these sections, but it’s been so blown out with people the last 7 years that I’ve lost interest in it completely. Less fish per mile which made the quality of fish much better but now it all has too much pressure, and fishes completely different.
