Water releases from Rockport Reservoir are at 86.5 CFS. By Coalville the flows are around 161 CFS. Below Echo the Weber is flowing at 190 CFS. Throughout the I 84 canyon the Weber picks up a lot more water and is flowing at about 1,460 CFS once it gets to Ogden. Snowpack in the Weber River Drainage is sitting at 158 percent of normal. Due to snowmelt the Upper and Lower Weber are kind of out of the picture for fishing, but it is game on between Wanship and Coalville.

The Mother’s Day Caddis have arrived. Look for rising fish, especially in the evenings. I like to present a size 16 or 18 Matthew’s X caddis to these fish. If fish aren’t rising on the Weber, they love sow bugs, especially the tailwater sow in a size 16 or 18. Don’t forget to cover the subsurface caddis activity with something like a size 18 birds nest, a smaller prince nymph, or some other caddis larva of your choice. You will see some baetis activity, but not nearly as much as you will find on the Provo. Usually a purple or natural juju baetis in a size 18 will do the trick. There is also some spring midge activity on the Weber. Again not nearly as much as on the Provo, but fish will hone in on smaller gray and dark midges earlier in the day. I would cover that activity with a size 22 gray WD40 or a smaller zebra midge. I have also heard of a few people throwing streamers on the Weber. The white or natural zonker as been the streamer of choice for those anglers.
