Today’s verdict
Clear — a big 37°F swing through the day.
251 CFSFlow
55°F−1°Water temp
251 CFS is right around its typical level for September — this stretch typically runs 183–276 CFS.
Wading tends to be more manageable at typical flows, but beds shift and cold water saps strength fast — read the water, stay within your limits, and check conditions on-site. You remain responsible for your own safety.
At 55°F, the water is in the prime range for trout — cold enough to fish and to handle fish safely.

Conditions are estimates from USGS data. Always assess on-site conditions and use your own judgment.
The gauge near Charleston reads the Middle Provo, the meandering tailwater between Jordanelle and Deer Creek reservoirs that anglers wade for its dense brown and rainbow trout. It carries both flow and water temperature, so the read reflects the tailwater you'll fish. Fly recommendations here are drawn from a single shop report, so the intel runs lighter than on our multi-source rivers.
