Friday's Fishing report

I fished Henrys Lake on Friday and had fairly good luck.  The weather was calm and mostly clear in the early morning with elk dotting the meadows west of the lake.

I first fished the A-Frame Bay and only got one small cutthroat before I moved on the Duck Creek.  In seven feet of water I landed a 19 inch cutthroat and a 19 inch brook trout.  Both were taken on a Beadhead Electric Black.

 
I then decided to try the deep part of the lake as a slight breezy made drift-fishing about right.  In the Wild Rose Hybrid Hole in 20 feet of water, I started getting hits and a few fish.  I landed four cutts and another large brook trout.  Most of them were taken on a Canadian Red Leech with red tinsel in the black tail.
 
I heard reports of bait fishermen doing well along the Cliffs and also catching some large hybrids there.  I will have to try it in the next week to see what happens.  The lake is still too cold to cause the fish to school up much.
