Henry’s Fork, October 4th, 2022

Brown trout are migrating to spawning areas throughout the river below lower Mesa Falls. In contrast to the brown trout runs in Yellowstone park waters, the Henry’s Fork run is attended primarily by local fly fishers. Thus with fewer anglers on the river, a better chance of solitude can be realized.

In addition, the lower river still offers good terrestrial insect hatches on sunny, warm days and BWO, mahogany dun, and caddis activity. So the river offers good fishing for the top water enthusiast as well as those preferring to try wet flies to encounter the migrating brown trout.
