Henry’s Fork, September 10th, 2022

Cooling and upcoming unsettled weather is just what is needed to bring back daytime action on the lower river. BWO and mahogany dun activity will be on the increase, and barring a killing frost, hoppers and other terrestrial insects will continue to attract trout and steamer patterns will be effective during low light conditions. Until killing frosts take place presenting terrestrial insect patterns is a best straregy for fishing the entire river

On the upper river, Box Canyon will begin producing some great streamer fishing to go along with good results from presenting large nymph patterns, and the same can be expected in the Tubs area below Big Springs.

About a week ago flow out of Henry’s Lake was reduced to around 35 cfs from around 150 cfs. That action will move larger fish out of the Flat Ranch reach of the river and into the river above Mack’s Inn. Look for many of those fish to reside in the Tubs area of the river.
