: Henry's Fork: The last day of March, and most public agencies are now recommending that outdoor activities, fishing included, are safe to enjoy during these uncertain times because they enhance social distancing. Fly-fishers always prefer social distancing when on the water, and none of us likes to be within six feet of each other (excepting when boating), especially during casting actions! Also the further we separate from our fellow fly-fishers while on the water, the better the one that got away stories become! So getting out to the water can be a great and safe way the relieve the boredom of being cooped up. With springtime advancing, more water is becoming approachable. The lower Henrys Fork is losing stream-side ice and snow each day. BWOs, midges and the beginnings of March brown mayflies make for active top water fishing. Streamers and any pattern imitating a stonefly nymph bring action if you prefer to fish deeper. Reported by: Jimmy's All Seaons Angler |

| Misc Info: -
The reach from Riverside Campground to Ashton Reservoir is now open all year, so anglers will be able to fish a new reach of river prior to Memorial weekend. Although access is difficult, the area offers excellent fishing and outstanding scenery. The Box Canyon reach of the Henrys Fork and the reach from Ashton Dam to Vernon Bridge opens the Saturday of Memorial weekend and should be very good early in the season. The warm weather is moving the timing of insect hatches a little early this year. The Harriman section of the Henrys Fork of the Snake opens June 15. This fly-fishing only section provides an opportunity to test your fly-fishing skills. The lower river is very popular in the spring and early summer. Please recognize that access on the lower river is dependent on willing landowners, so be courteous and respectful of private property. |
