The Lower Henry’s Fork is full of caddis and PMD hatches. They have been going off sporadically throughout the day and more consistently during the evening. Use a #18 Splitsville Caddis in tan or olive and a #16 Spent Partridge Caddis in peacock to imitate the caddis. Use a #18 Guide Winna Spinna PMD and a #18 No Hackle PMD to imitate the PMDs. Green Drakes should come off any minute, so have a #12 Parachute Green Drake for adult flies. Again, a smaller rubberlegs can be effective as well as a #12 Prince Nymph or a #10 Green Drake Nymph is best for imitating the nymphal stage. Shortleash a splitcase, an electric caddis, or a blowtorch from one of these to extend your range in the water column.

Flows: 1060 CFS

Foam Stone Golden can be extremely effective in Box Canyon as well as Wood Road...... Read More
