Henry's Fork in Mid/end June 2023 Thread
I have been looking into this. To me, 2d or 3rd week in. June seems like a great time to fish Henry's Fork and the entire area between Henry's Lake and St. Anthony.
I am posting this thread very early, but there is a lot to consider, and we can start out broad and then get more specific. Accommodations range from camping for about $35/day (unless there is free disbursed camping in the area) to 6 bedroom houses that are on the fork and accommodate up to 15 for about $500-$600/nt. For now, it would be nice to know who is interested, # in party incl. pets, whether you prefer tent/rv or house lodging, and whether you are bringing a boat. I think that we would be wise to try to shore up plans by Jan. or Feb., maybe March 1 at the latest.
We can start a list, but I can't imagine that we could get a group of fisherman larger than 10-15.

Schindlerpiste--maybe Chessie dog--maybe wife. I could bring along a tandem fishing kayak. Any lodging, but house is preferable.

I just might take you up on that! Although, that is typically when our big bugs hit the water too.

Re: the HF
My plan is to be there for the first couple days after opening day (believe it's 6/15), its usually a family outing with my dad and brother. They might stay a bit longer but I can't take more than a few days off.
Maybe its just how I grew up, but the last couple years of opening weekend haven't been shit compared to the combat fishing on the Delaware back east. It seems like people at least have some manors here.
High snowmelt year could be interesting, and I've already laid that out there to the fam, but they're still coming. Like most epic dry fly fishing a lot of shit has to line up just right. The beauty up there is that even when it doesn't it's still pretty good.
Two years ago the hatch was on, but the fucking seagulls were eating more bugs off the water than the fish. Couple that with them jacking the flow up and down and it killed what could have been a truly epic time. Last year the hatch wasn't great, but the seagulls were not nearly as bad and the crowds were virtually non-existent. Had pretty much free reign every night to go wherever we wanted.
