Ice fishing Henrys Lake


With only five more days of open fishing on Henrys Lake, we finally made it up there.  The recent cold weather had put five inches of ice near the Hatchery and two friends and I had a great time.

Moose caught three large brook trout like this one.  We were fishing east of the Hatchery with a variety of lures and bait and caught about 30 fish between us.


Here Gary is landing a nice cutthroat.  We missed a lot of bites and a nearby fisherman lost a huge fish that we could not get up through the 8-inch hole. 


With fish like these, I am headed back up there tomorrow morning.  A great way to spend a wild but cold day in Idaho.

You really have to enjoy fishing to endure weather like that. I enjoy it when it is warm weather and they bite.

Hi Bill - Thanks for your update. I am hoping to make the trip up Monday or Tuesday. Might see you there!
