Henry’s Fork Fly Fishing Report 6 October 2009: Better This Week….

in River - Henry's Fork

We haven’t posted anything about the Henry’s Fork in the past few weeks; until the recent weather change things were pretty steady down there (and pretty challenging).

The Box is still fishing early and late with streamers, big dark rubber legs and BH nymphs; flows have been running between 400 and 450 cfs for days now and the river is eminently wadable here.

There are Baetis and Mahoganies out at Last Chance / Harriman; you’ll still need patience, fine tippets and a very careful approach, but the cooler, cloudy days due this week should make for some decent fishing.

Streamers have been working well on the lower river when it’s cloudy and there are still some terrestrials alive and kicking down here, though they may not be for long given the weather changes coming this week – it’s going to get cold in Island Park….
