Henry’s Fork 7-04-09

Big news here is the excellent brown drake hatch evenings with best being on the lower Harriman reach of river.  Be there early to get your favorite spot even though there is plenty of river.  Any big brown drake dry pattern will work if you present it carefully.  There are still a few golden stones around Box Canyon and from Riverside Campground down through the Warm River confluence.   Green drakes have peaked,  but caddis and PMDs are everywhere.  On the lower river gray drakes continue giving action from above Chester Backwaters down to St. Anthony.   Don’t forget your favorite streamer pattern for evenings on the lower river.  Through presenting them comes your best chance for that “fish of the year”.  It’s a great time to be on this storied river, and if you are waiting for the South Fork to subside, this river is the best alternate for you and that boat.
