Henrys Lake is a shallow, fabulously fertile natural lake up near the Idaho-Montana line, and it grows trout the size of footballs — big cutthroat, brook trout, and the famous hybrid 'cutbows' that pull like freight trains. It's a stillwater game played from a tube or a boat, working damsels, leeches, and scuds along the weed edges and spring inlets. The lake gets warm and weedy in high summer and fishes best on the cool shoulders, spring and fall, when those heavy fish move shallow and a slow retrieve gets eaten hard.
