Guided Fly Fishing Trips & Rates

Guided Fly Fishing on the South Fork, Main Stem of the Snake River & Palisades Reservoir

The South Fork of the Snake is an extremely productive fishery, offering native Snake River Cutthroat, Rainbow, Hybrid (Cut Bow),and Brown trout. We often catch fish over 20 inches, but most fish fall in the 15-17 inch range. The South Fork starts with nymph fishing in the early summer, then transitions to dry fly fishing by the end of June and through September. Fall offers great dry fly and streamer fishing.

The Main Stem of the Snake River from Idaho Falls to the reaches below American Falls Reservoir offers excellent fishing for Trout, Bass, and even Carp. Several of our guides spend their winters near Pocatello to guide on the Snake River as winter fishing on this section offers great chances of catching trout over 20″.

Palisades Reservoir offers a unique opportuntiy for larger groups, kids, or anglers who aren’t expierenced fly fishers. Guest fish from the comfort of a 22 foot pontoon boat complete with amenities like a sun canopy, live well and fish finder. Trolling in comfort for Lake Trout, Koaknee, plus Rainbow, Brown, and Cutthroat Trout.
