Full Day Guided Private Walk: Wade Fly Fishing Jackson Hole

Wade through mountain streams, cast into clear water, and chase trout all day in Jackson Hole.

A full-day private fly fishing trip in Jackson Hole where you wade through the river, cast for trout, and fish an intimate stretch of water with a live English-speaking guide. The day includes all fishing gear, bottled water and snacks. A fishing license is available to add at checkout. Suited to beginners, intermediate and experienced anglers alike.

The experience

You spend the day in waders, moving through the water of Jackson Hole's streams with a guide who knows where the trout hold. The trip works for anglers at any level (whether you've never cast before or you've fished for years), because the guide adjusts the pace and the water to what you can handle. The Teton Mountains frame the day, and the streams run clear enough that you can see the bottom. You'll cast, strip line, feel the take, and work a fish if one commits. The guide handles the technical calls and the strategy. You handle the rod.

Fishing gear comes with you: rods, reels, waders, everything you need to fish. Bottled water and snacks keep you going through the six hours. The drive to the river varies depending on the season and which water the guide picks that day, so plan for travel time before and after. You'll need a moderate level of fitness to wade all day. The river bottom is uneven and the current has weight. A fishing license is optional and you can add it when you book.

Top questions

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. No refund if you cancel.

What's the skill level needed to fly fish on this trip?

The trip welcomes beginners, intermediate and experienced anglers. The guide adjusts the casting instruction and the water difficulty to match your experience, so there's no minimum skill required to start.

Do I need to bring my own fishing gear?

All fishing gear is included: rods, reels, waders and everything else you need to fish. You just bring yourself and dress for the weather.

How much walking and wading is involved?

You'll be in the water and moving along the riverbed for the full six hours. The terrain is uneven and the current has force, so a moderate level of physical fitness helps you stay comfortable and safe in the stream.

What happens if I don't catch a fish?

The guide positions you where trout feed and teaches you how to present the fly, but whether a fish takes is never guaranteed. The day is about the casting, the water and the mountains as much as it is about the catch.

Can I add a fishing license when I book?

Yes, a fishing license is available to add at checkout. It's not included in the base trip, so you can choose whether you need one when you make your reservation.
