I read most of it. Fine TR. You had fun, took some outstanding photos,
and at least your dad caught some big fish. :-)

High water?

Those photos and descriptions of Henrys Fork were fun to read, because
I've been to all those spots, but it's been too long. Makes me want to
go back.

Nice report, and great pictures. SWMBO and I were in that area a
couple of years ago. In fact, in the first picture of the Madison (the
one at the Raynolds Pass Bridge), you can see the house that we rented.
It's the one behind the tree that's perched right above the river.
Great place and unbelievable location. That bend above the island was a
very popular spot, as well as the channel on the far side.

I was awed by the falls (Upper Mesa, I believe it was called) too.
SWMBO and I took almost as many shots as you did. :-)

Thanks for sharing that. It brought back some fond memories.

Hi Chuck,

Glad you liked the report! My idea for it was that I could get people
to see what the area looked like from my perspective as well as to do
what I've done for you which was to rekindle a memory.

When you get a chance, you should do yourself a favor and get back out
there!!!

Hey, thanks for reading that and replying. I hope others get some
enjoyment from it too!

Regards,


Dennis

You've definitely done both.

When you get a chance, you should do yourself a favor and get back out
there!!!


I plan to. It was our first trip there, so we wound up doing a lot
of sightseeing (and not nearly enough fishing). But I identified a lot
of places I want to return to. (You might want to also check out some
of the water towards/in Yellowstone if you get back.)

For now I'll have to be content to spend a week fishing the streams
in and around the Smokies and Graham County, N.C. I leave tomorrow. :-)

Thanks again.

Interesting report--seems you guys hit it just right---I''ve been lucky
enough to float four times while out west--first trip on Madison my squaw
and I caught so many nice fish we ask the guide to fish awhile and give us a
break- next trip somewhere south of madison with fly fish [I think] where
I caught a few trout and whitefish--next trip in Guink boat with Warren
almost froze and caught zilch--last trip with John over by Rock Creek -sun
was so hot my toenails got sunburned
Really appreciate my fellow Roff fellows who furnished
their boats to clave and were nice enough to spend their vacation hauling
us around bur really have decided I would rather find a wading spot.
Re your discussion of charging for flies--have not fished with many guides
but find I never have the flies they want me to use-if they are looking to
make money just add it to price before you agree to fish with them
Really liked fishing in New Zealand where you are not expectet to tip
guides.
Would enjoy your comments about tips expected by guides----you somehow came
over as a good but cheap fisherman

Sounds like you hit it right. Your trip brought back some good memories.
I've been to Henry's Fork twice. One time the fishing was awesome and
the other it was VERY tough.
