Do any of you make it out to Henry's Lake. I have fished all around that area fly fishing on the rivers and had no idea what I was missing by not fishing the lake. I fished it for 3 hours during the last week of Sept. We were bored of fishing the river and heard there were big fish in there. It was amazing. I caught 4 fish around 4 pounds and had one huge rainbow up to the boat at about 9 pounds. All in three hours. It is too bad I never discovered this at the first of my trip.
It is pretty shallow. Has lots of food and vegitation. The fish seemed really young for their size. It must have an even faster growth rate than Strawberry. All fish also had amazing color. I have never seen Cutt's so lit up in the fall like this. I attached one picture to show the colors. This picture definitely does not do it justice but gives you an idea. The gill plate, fins and even the tail had scarlet red all over.
