There's a book called "fishing Henry's Lake" (I think). Can't remember the authors name, but last summer/fall this came up and I can't remember how many people on this board swore by getting it and knowing it, living, memorizing it. It is mostly geared toward flyfishing but a lot of the information would be very helpful for other types of fishing, like maps of the lake and such. I have yet to find a book that really gives much info on things like trolling or using bait up there. As you get closer to the time you will be there make frequent posts looking for info in here and call some of the places around the lake like Wild Rose, and the State Park area.

I think you are talking about Bill Shies . I probably spelled that wrong . He has a shop at Ponds Lodge in Island Park . Everybody says that the best book on Henry's Lake . Curt G.

Bill only guides a few days out the year anymore, but you can still learn a lot about Henrys Lake by reading Bill Schiess' book Fishing Henry's Lake. Things change from year to year, but you can still learn a lot from that book. You can also contact Flygoddess or Everett14 they know quite a bit about the lake as well.

Tybugs1- are we talking about the fly shop at Pond's Lodge ? I was there from the 19th of Oct to the 22nd.
Shop was empty- closed and I talked to the guy at Pond's and he said it was closed down ????????????????
Really it was Pond's- Blueberry Pancakes and all.

Yea, and if you need supplies, just get a hold of TYBUGS and he will meet you in the parking lot of his favorite gas station[laugh]
Still wonder what the people thought with us hanging around your truck with a lot of little baggies.
I would have loved a cop to pull up and ask what we were up to[crazy]
BWITTY, we head up there for a week in September...maybe we will see you.
Can't help you with bait and lures, but you can troll a fly. I even have extra gear. We could do a Fly Fishing 101...LOL
Everett, did you grow any more? This kid is already like 7' tall.
