Description

Experience the serene beauty of the San Juan Mountains on our Full Day Guided Fly Fishing Trip. Our expert guides will lead you to secluded fishing spots teeming with trout. Wade into the crystal-clear waters, surrounded by towering pine trees and cliff walls. Feel the rush of excitement as you cast your line into the currents, where rainbow, brown, and cutthroat trout await.

Throughout the day, our guides will share their wealth of knowledge, offering tips on casting techniques and insights into local aquatic ecosystems. Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to the sport, our guides will tailor the experience to suit your skill level and preferences taking you to the best fishing spots in the region. We offer a variety of rivers with conventient drive to destinations varying from premier tailwaters to scenic freestone rivers to high country streams.

Uncompaghre Located between Ridgway and Montrose, the tailwaters of the Uncompaghre offer predictable flows, constant water temperatures, and abundant aquatic insects making for an uniquely productive year-round fishery; great for beginners and experts alike. We offer premium access to multiple river sections regardless of weather or time of the year. The structured holding water, deep runs, and large pools create an ideal habitat for heavy rainbows, browns and cutthroat trout. Because these fish require stealthy presentations and exact fly imitations, based on recommendations from your guide, it is an excellent opportunity to practice the timeless art of match-the-hatch fly fishing.

San Miguel Located between Telluride and Ridgway, this Freestone River offers consistent insect hatches providing anglers a rare opportunity to experience classic Colorado dry fly fishing for eager Rainbow, Brown and Cutthroat Trout. As the San Miguel River meanders its way through red-rock walls, scenic sandstone canyons, and forested banks, expect to be amazed at the river’s serene riparian ecology, clear waters and productive angling opportunities.

High Country Streams Check out our expansive access to high country trout fishing, perfect for all levels from beginners, kids, and families to devoted anglers. Smaller in size but eager to bite, these Brook, Cutthroat and Rainbow trout can all be found.

As you reel in your catch against the backdrop of majestic mountain vistas, take a moment to savor the tranquility of nature. Indulge in a delicious riverside charcuturie style lunch and recharge for an afternoon of memorable fishing moments. Walk Wade trips have become a vacation favorite for solo anglers, groups and families, company outings and anyone interested in improving their abilities.

Join us for a Full Day Walk Wade guided fly fishing trip and discover the unparalleled beauty and exhilarating angling opportunities that await in the heart of the San Juan Mountains.
