Let our guides tailor your experience taking you to the best fishing spots in the region. We have a wide array of rivers to choose from, 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.

Our guides are not just expert fly-fishers but also passionate storytellers, always ready to share Colorado's secrets and legends as they help you navigate the riverbanks in search of achieving a tight line. If you're a new angler, they'll show you the ropes, ensuring you have fun on this tour no matter your skill level.

This half-day adventure isn't just about the fish— it's about the entire experience. Enjoy the beauty of the mountain landscapes and practice your skills at fly fishing all season long.
