Thats my old fishing hole, I would make sure to take all of the following

Golden Stone
Blue winged olive
Some Elk Hairs
Olive Hairs ears

Anything that looks like the following

Ants
Crickets
Beetles
Grasshoppers

Also dont forget something that looks like a nightcrawler and dont forget your nymphs

Provo can provide some great fishing, but at times it can get very packed

If you get skunked on the middle section head up above deer creek near midway and try some of those stretches, it gets less traffic and a lot of times I have had better luck up there.

I used to fish there when I was a kid. I remember there was this old wooden bridge that my dad had to drive his old VW over to get to the spot. We lived in Orem for five years. We always came back with a stringern full of Rainbows in the fall and catfish in the summers. Does anyone have any pics to post of that river? I haven't seen it since the earily 70s

Sorry I don't have any recent fishing pics, but here is some pics from our trip back home last Christmas

I am sure things look a little different from the last time you were there.
