Henry’s Fork River - June 29th, 2006
supplied by: Angler’s Habitat
RECORDED:
78 °
FISHING: Great
Henry’s Fork
Very Good
The lower section of the Henry’s River remains the most productive area right now. The green drake hatch is starting to slow down a bit and will die off soon. There is no reason to dismay as the PMD hatch will be in full swing shortly. Take a long a good selection of the various life cycles of the Pale Morning Dun. You will find that the nymph and cripple stages are very productive when the adult gets refusals. Around the Harriman area the flavs are out as well as evening brown drake action. That means a few rusty spinners in the evening as the drakes fall. Look for fish to be hanging near riffles later in the day. Keep a keen eye for feeders starting to sip in the slower areas of the river.
