Henry’s Fork, June 22, 2024

Same story for the entire river. Mayflies prevail as dominant hatches of interest to feeding trout. PMDs are active throughout. Flavs are coming on in the Last Chance–Harriman  reach. Brown Drakes are appearing during evenings with Harriman East being a great location for great numbers of them. Green drakes have peaked but a few are still around. Big stoneflies have peaked in numbers, but enough remain that trout will take floating imitations of them.  

Currently good water quality reigns in temperature and clarity throughout the river downstream at least to Chester Dam (good area for fish responding to gray drakes). From this location, Fall River brings in run-off water which is decreasing in amounts and clearing.

HFF is in need of volunteers to assist with our first river cleanup of the summer!  This will be taking place June 27th, from 9am-2pm.  We will be cleaning access sites from Big Springs through to Last Chance.  Please email me if you are interested, and I can provide more information!  Contact Jasper Davis.
