Ham’s Fork Tailwaters
The Ham’s Fork is a medium-sized stream flowing out of the Wyoming Range into Viva Naughton Reservoir near the town of Kemmerer.
Below the dam, Feathered Hook has a private stretch as it dumps into Kemmerer reservoir. This stream is a classic tailwater, winding though willows with numerous riffles, in addition to pools and undercut banks. This is classic dry fly water, with multiple hatches occurring daily from July through October. Midges and Blue Winged Olives are the primary food source with hatches of Golden Stone Fly and Caddis coming off in June and July. As the summer goes on, nymphs and streamers work well on the trout as they seek refuge in the deeper holes.
