North Branch, Hendrickson timing?

[Stephen]

Allright I've had my fill of steelhead and I'm jonesing for some trout on a dry fly. My first day available to be on the river will be in mid April. Anybody know if the Hennies will be out about that time?

I'm going either way, just wanted to know how disappointed I should expect to get....Thanks in advance.

Its a bit early. Depending on the year/weather... late April, early May

Try calling Gates Ausable Lodge. They would know.

Thanks for the help. I'll post a report after my trip.

Call Todd Fuller or go to their website. Fullersnboc. They actually have a hatch chart specifically for the North Branch. They give them out for free and I'm sure it's posted on their website.

Last year the hatches were screwed up by water and it looks like this year they will be messed up by the cool air if it doesn't warm up soon. At least early on it looks like one of those years where you will have to be ready to run to the river when you hear the hatches are on since there's no predicting anything right now.
