Henry's Lake

Fishing success depends on who you interviewed. Weather was good, but lake is warming up so best shallow water fishing is developing at creek mouths. Cutthroat-rainbow trout do not seem to be as numerous nor at large as in the past. Thus, Idaho Department of Fish and Game have begun a study to find out why this depletion is happening.  Shoreline fishing still produces with fly patterns from woolly bugger types to scud and midge life cycle patterns being effective. Boat fishing can be dangerous when winds pick up, therefore it is wise to watch the weather, use life jackets, and be ready to make for shore on a moment’s notice. Undeveloped roads are drying out. The State Park is open for camping for which a fee is charged.  The Bill Frome County park is also open but has no potable water.
