MATCH THE HATCH & MORE…
Fishing techniques on the Green River below Flaming Gorge Dam can vary depending on the specific insect hatch.
Here are some effective techniques for the key hatches:
### Midges
**Techniques**:
Nymphing is highly effective. Use a double nymph rig with a Zebra Midge as the dropper fly. Dry fly fishing can also be productive during midge hatches, especially in the early morning or late afternoon.
**Patterns**:
Zebra Midge (#18-22), Griffith’s Gnat (#20-24).
### Blue-Winged Olives (BWOs)
*Techniques**:
Dry fly fishing is excellent during BWO hatches. Look for rising fish in slower water and back eddies. Nymphing with BWO nymphs can also be productive before the hatch.
**Patterns**:
BWO Emerger (#18-20), Parachute Adams (#18-20).
### Caddisflies
**Techniques**:
Swinging wet flies or skating dry flies can be very effective. In the evening, try using caddis dry flies near the banks and riffles.
**Patterns**:
Elk Hair Caddis (#18-22), LaFontaine’s Sparkle Pupa (#14-16).
### Pale Morning Duns (PMDs)
**Techniques**:
Dry fly fishing is the go-to method during PMD hatches. Target slower runs and back eddies where fish are rising. Nymphing with PMD nymphs can be effective before the hatch.
**Patterns**:
PMD Nymph (#16-18), PMD Sparkle Dun (#16-18).
### Stoneflies
**Techniques**:
Nymphing with large stonefly nymphs is very effective. During the hatch, try using large dry flies near the banks and in fast water.
**Patterns**:
Golden Stonefly Nymph (#6-10),
Stimulator (#6-10).
Tricos (#20-22)
**Techniques**:
Dry fly fishing with Trico spinners is effective during the morning hatch. Look for fish sipping in slow, flat water.
**Patterns**:
Trico Spinner (#20-22), Trico Parachute (#20-22).
Cicadas (SPRING & SUMMER 20-2025) Chris’s Chernobyl (#6-10), Fat Albert (#6-10)
Techniques**:
Dry fly fishing with large cicada patterns can be very exciting. Cast near the banks and overhanging vegetation where cicadas are likely to fall into the water, book your reservation for late Spring early Summer NOW for the 2025 Cicada Season !
General Green River Fly Fishing Tips
**Nymphing**:
Use a strike indicator and adjust the depth to keep your nymphs near the bottom. A double nymph rig with a heavier fly on top and a smaller fly on the bottom can be very effective.
**Green River Dry Fly Fishing**:
Match the hatch by observing the insects on the water and selecting a fly that closely resembles them. Present your fly with a drag-free drift.
**Effective Green River Streamers**:
When hatches are sparse, fishing with streamers can be productive. Use a sink-tip line to get your fly down to the fish.
These techniques should help you make the most of the diverse hatches on the Green River.
