Brook Trout on Henrys Lake

Two of my sons-in-law and my grandson joined me for a great day on Henrys Lake.  We caught one hybrid, seven cutthroats and 15 brook trout for a great day.  Most of the fish were taken in 20 feet of water on a #4 Light Olive and Black Woolly Bugger.

Here a son-in-law shows off a large brook trout taken in the Wild Rose Hybrid Hole.


Just the first day of a three-day fishing experience.

Bill,

Happy to see some fish being caught. I have been in Belize chasing Permit and am looking forward to hitting the lake. We are dockmates and I got my boat in last weekend. The snowflies are starting to invade at a fervent pitch. I cast poorly enough without the handicap of a beekeepers suit.

Bill,

We got 33 yesterday about in the middle of the lake, but shading toward Targhee Creek. A lot of fish in that area. You need a Wet Cel 4 line and fish it as you drift. It was odd yesterday as we only caught two brookies, four hybrids and the rest were cutts. Good fishing to you - I will visit with you.

As always, Bill, nice to read an updated report. One of these days, I am going to get a bigger Brookie. At least, that is what I envision.
