Henry's Fork weekender
Henry's Fork & Madison River, Fly & Lure, 1 fish, 3 days
Really sparse! We flogged the water for hours across Friday, Saturday and Sunday and got one tiny trout on a lure. He broke off at my feet so I didn't get a get look at him. Gorgeous country though. Quick notes on the water:
- Henry's Fork upper near Big Springs: Really fishy, but very popular summer river float destination. Not my favorite for that reason.
- Henry's Fork Lower near Ora Bridge: I know this place rocks, even though I wasn't able to pull anything out. Will be returning.
- Harriman's Fish Pond: No go! We stopped to check it out and at least when we were there in early July, it was an algae-choked swamp.
- Madison River: We dipped up into Montana to check out Three Dollar Bridge. Again, another super promising looking spot, but the river moved quickly and so the drifts were very short. Felt like we needed a demo of how to fish it.
