Most of the small streams are either high altitude and still in run-off flood stage or on private property. Like in NY you cannot trespass to access the water, there is no high water mark rule nor wetfoot rule. You simply cannot access many of the small streams that are fishable this time of year.
If your business is in Provo I would try Diamond Fork, there is access, there are numerous parking areas for anglers, it is flowing at about 90 CFS. That is still high but not as pushy. It is reported to be fishing well. It will be Browns and Cutts in the lower parts. More Cutts the farther up you go up into the 6th Water Creek area.
It's a nymphing game with the water conditions, longer the rod the better, 4-5 wt. Stoneflies, San Juan worms, Sowbugs, Blue Wing Olives in nymph, emerger and dry. Fish those yellow stones right next to the edge and have some yellow sallys handy in case a hatch breaks out. STREAMERS, you bet I would...the usual suspects will do, buggers, crayfish, anything minnow and muddlers in bead and cone.
Stay out of the water, it's just to high. You will find the river banks to be quite thick with brush. You'll just have to find openings where you can get a line in. Good luck, tell someone where you're going.
