browns

Before the steelhead come in heavy, I was thinking of going to the clear fork again. Hows the action there? I know the state releases more trout in the fall, but is there a date on which they do?

Clearfork is an awesome bass and musky lake also.

Was there with a friend of mine a couple years ago in the later part of May and killed the bass.

I also hooked 3 and landed one Musky.

The one I landed was about 36-38 inches
the other two I got em up to the boat and they were both 40+ inch fish, I couldnt land them with the bass gear I was using, ended up going under the boat and cutting the line both times.

we were using 4 inch electric blue plastic worms , texas rigged and fishing the shallow weed beds and coves.

It is a great lake all around.

I should have said the clear fork river of the mohican river, but thanks for the muskie info on the lake.

They don't post the date on the fall release but looking at past falls they seem to do it the last 2 weeks in October. As for the fishing, my father-in-las was there 2 weeks ago and caught a few small browns and he's pretty inexperienced with the fly rod. His father-in-law lost 3 in the high teens fishing pools with lures. So it sounds like it's definitely worth a trip!
