Henry’s Fork 9-08-2011

Because of construction activities on Ashton Dam the river below clouds up from time to time.  So fishing below the dam has slowed. On the upper river Last Chance-Harriman is fishing well. Morning spinner falls, Mid-day and early evening terrestrial activity and evening caddis activity make for action.  Want a chance at a big cutthroat or brookie in the Henry’s Fork?  The flow out of Henry’s Lake is being dropped.  So fish that have come out of the lake and have survived the summer in the reach known as “Henry’s Lake Outlet”, mostly cutthroat but some hybrids and brookies, will be moving downstream into the Tubs above Macks Inn and eventually down to Island Park Reservoir.  Best way to encounter these is presenting streamer patterns from the Tubs on down through Coffee Pot.
