Guided Wyoming Fly Fishing Trips

  • Guided fly fishing raft in Wyoming

    Float Trip

    Float Trips, by their nature, allow anglers to cover a lot of water. Most of North Fork Anglers float trips cover 6-10 miles per day. Fly fishing from a boat not only allows you to float over lots of trout in a single day, but also to sit back and see some of the remarkable scenery and wildlife found in the Greater Yellowstone area. Moose, bighorn sheep, deer, and elk are seen regularly, as are grizzly and black bears. Float trips allow for one – two anglers per craft.

  • Walk wade angler on the north fork Shoshone River

    Walk & Wade Trip

    Walk /Wade Trips feature wild trout, solitude, and scenery. On these trips, you will be shown how to “pick the water apart” by casting your fly over, around, and under features of the river or stream you are fishing. These trips are not designed to be strenuous (although we can accommodate that, too) but, instead, they are designed to give you on-hand and over-the-shoulder instructions you might need in order to set the hook.

  • Clear water North Fork of the Shoshone Riv

    North Fork Shoshone River

    The North Fork has been rated as one of the Top 10 rivers to fly fish in the northern Rockies. This river contains healthy concentrations of native Yellowstone Cutthroat, Rainbow, Cuttbow hybrids, and Brown Trout. Trout sizes range from 10 inches to well over 20 inches! The average North Fork Trout is 16-18”. More than 30 miles of the North Fork flows through the Shoshone National Forest and is a very scenic float. It is not uncommon to see bald eagles, moose, bighorn sheep, bears, deer, and other wildlife while floating and fishing. Due to the river’s reel screaming and rod bending trophy sized trout and its immense popularity, we recommend guided trip guests book as early as possible.

    South Fork Shoshone River

    The South Fork is a wild trout freestone river that flows into Buffalo Bill Reservoir from the SW. Most of the river is private water with limited angler access until the Shoshone Forest Boundary near Valley. We offer Float or Walk/Wade Trips on this popular Brown Trout (dominate trout), native Yellowstone Cutthroat, Brook and Rainbow Trout river. Boat put-ins and take-outs are primitive and require some help from the clients.

  • Lower Shoshone

    The Lower Shoshone is an overlooked jewel in the fly fishing community. Offering ample fishing access and eager trout, the river is a must for the fly fishing enthusiast. This is one of the only rivers in the Rocky mountains you can fish year around due to the influence of the hot springs trickling in above.

  • Wyoming Brown Trout

    Clarks Fork of The Yellowstone

    Fed by a hundred, or more, glacial lakes draining the Beartooth Plateau, the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone is a fly fisherman’s dream river. The Clarks Fork has three distinct sections, each fish differently, and each section has its own personality, requiring fly fishermen to change tactics on each section in order to keep the rod bent and the reel singing.

  • fly fishing high country lakes wyoming

    High Country Lakes & Reservoirs

    Fishermen preferring all types of angling tactics have discovered the treasures found in the high plains lakes of the eastern Rockies. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department has stocked many of these with a variety of trout – Browns, Rainbows, Cutthroat, Splake, and Tiger Trout. Due to the mineral content of the mountainous soils, the water in these lakes are rich with aquatic insects and crustaceans which translates into good to trophy sized trout in many of the lakes. For the fly fisherman, this also translates into a rod-bending great time.

  • Yellowstone National Park

    Enjoy spectacular scenery and great fishing on the Lamar River, Soda Butte Creek, Slough Creek, the Yellowstone River, and Yellowstone Lake.
