Henry’s Fork, September 4th, 2024

At about 550 cfs is coming out of Island Park Dam, so flow in the river below is about two-thirds of normal. That means the Last Chance-Harriman reach demands stealth, long leaders and fine tippets.  This finest of equipment makes it tough on fish played to possession then released no matter how cool the water.  The bigger the fish the tougher it is for them to recover from being caught and played when fine leaders and tippets are used. So take all the time needed to revive them.  Don’t forget those ant patterns!
