Henrys Lake

[bsflies]

Henrys Lake was pretty good on Saturday - after the wind died down about 10 a.m. Early in the morning we battled the wind and caught a small cutt and lost a big fish in the Hope Creek area. After we got blown off at 8:30 and my clients left, I went out duck hunting on the lake. The wind calmed down about 10 a.m. so I went back to fishing. I took three brook trout at Duck Creek, three cutts and a large hybrid at Hope Creek and then tried to get over to Targhee Creek, but the wind was too strong on the east side of the lake. I decided to head in and call it a day. As I was going past the Glory Hole at Staley Springs I saw two large fish rise, so my plans changed. I got my fly rod out again and on the first cast with an Olive Rug Yarn fly, nailed a 28 inch hybrid. I ended up landing seven fish at the Glory Hole with two hybrids over 25 inches, a brook trout that was 22 inches and four cutts over 18 inches. It was a great way to end the day.

Two more Saturdays to go before the season on Henrys Lake closes.

Good Luck.
