Everyone is waiting for the days to begin cooling. Then watch fishing pick up here.
Everyone is waiting for the days to begin cooling. Then watch fishing pick up here.
Fishing has been really spotty here, but as we cool during September action will pick up. As we hear of improvements, we will post them here.
Best action will come as we get into September and October. For now be patient and try creek mouths and spring holes.
Fish remain scattered around the lake, but the best chances for action are at creek mouths and spring holes.
Fish deep (watch for weeds), fish creek mouths and spring holes.
It’s tough times for fly-fishers, but creek mouths and spring holes remain your best bet.
Fishing has slowed down a bit as is typical this time of year. Best locations are deeper water (watch for weeds), creek mouths ( best can get crowded), and spring holes (can be crowded).
The name of the game is go to creek mouths and spring holes. Use the traditional Henry’s Lake patterns we have suggested as well as midge pupa/indicator techniques. Expect crowds where the fishing is good.
Creek mouths are the places to be. If not there, then try spring holes with Staley’s Spring being the most famous. Use the traditonal Henry’s Lake patterns along with midge pupa under an indicator when you visit all of these.
The creek mouths and spring holes now offer the best fishing all around the lake. These may tend to get crowded, so get there early or stay late to get a favorite location. Some of the Henry’s Lake classics such as mity mouse, renegade and smaller crystal buggers are the way to go at these locations.
