Henry's Fork Heating Up

The Henry's Fork has been fishing well the last several days. Randy stated that it is the best he has seen it in over 20 years on one stretch. The bugs are not out in force yet, however the fish are eating nymphs and some dry flies. We are catching many many fish over 20 inches.

Jimmy Jones from Houston landed this 23 x 16 inch brown on the Warm River stretch on the 29th.

Dean Scheid landed this 23.5 brown below Ashton on the 3oth of May.

Early South Fork Fishing

Fishing on the South Fork has been unexpectedly good this May. Normally we would be only on the Henry's Fork this time of year but due to the cold wet weather the salmon fly hatch has been delayed for the time being. Fortunately for us the South Fork has produced some out standing fishing in-particularly for big brown trout. George Geiges caught a 25 inch brown on May 23, and another guest caught a 22 1/2 x 18 hog the day before. We are very lucky to live in such a productive fishing area.

Spring Conditions Persist

We are continuing our wet weather from the winter. This spring has been wet and cold, except for a few days that reached near 90 degrees. The rivers are behind schedule from the recent years and hatches of salmon flies have been delayed from what we have seen the last few years. The weather this year is actually more normal than the last few years too.

Look for the bugs to start hatching this next week on the Henry's Fork.
