Wyoming Fly Fishing – Why Guides are Worth it

Tuesday, May 31st, 2011

Wyoming is the country’s tenth largest state, but also its least populated.  That leaves a lot of room for open country and wilderness.  In other words, there is a lot of room for fishermen and other outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy.  There are numerous spots across Wyoming that offer great fly fishing – so many that you’ll likely be unable to visit them all in one trip to the state.  While many people may want to do things their own way and gain the satisfaction of knowing that they did so, hiring a Wyoming fly fishing guide is worth every penny.

The main reason that fishing guides are so useful is that, as mentioned above, there are countless fishing destinations.  From Yellowstone and the Grand Teton Park to the Green River and numerous other rivers and creeks, there are miles upon miles of Wyoming fly fishing destinations.  While the fish are plentiful, there are obviously certain fishing holes that are better than others and a guide will likely know just where these ‘honey holes’ are located.  And certain stretches of rivers are filled with others on their own fishing trip.  If you’re hoping for isolation and relaxation when you journey into the wilderness, a guide can help you find the spots others don’t visit often.

Safety is always important, and while Wyoming fly fishing can be one of the most relaxing activities you’ll ever do, it does carry some risks.  For example, Yellowstone is home to eighteen different types of fish that you can land.  It’s also home to grizzly bears, gray wolves, and prairie rattlesnakes.  Unless you know what to do when dealing with animals like this, you could be in a dire situation if you find yourself face to face with one.  Guides can not only help you deal with threats, but they can also just keep an eye on you in case minor things happen such as a twisted ankle.  Walking out of the wilderness with only one good leg can be a nightmare.

The final reason that hiring guide may be a good idea is simply to simply catch more fish. You’ll need a fishing license and possibly permits, and different regulations are enforced in different areas of Wyoming.  In the parks and other areas, catch and release laws are strictly enforced.  Your guide can help ensure that you fish in areas that you’re allowed to and that you do so legally.  You can try to go it yourself, but a guide can help ensure that your Wyoming fly fishing trip is one of the best experiences of your life.

Colorado Fly Fishing – How to Choose a Top Destination

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

Fly fishing is one of the most popular wilderness activities, particularly in the western region of the United States. Trout fishing in particular is quite popular, with an abundance of trout each season in Colorado. If you are interested in Colorado Fly Fishing, there are a few factors to take into consideration before you choose your next fishing destination. To begin with, you must keep in mind that most Colorado fishing destinations are going to be based around the Rocky Mountains. This means that you will be fishing at a higher elevation than most other areas of the Western United States, above 5,000 feet.

This high elevation that is associated with Colorado fly fishing can lead to major differences in the types of flies that are used, as well as the behavior and patterns of the fish. To truly excel when you are fishing in these destinations, it can be helpful to do a little research first on the local wildlife. Using a local guide is highly recommended if it is your first time fly fishing in Colorado. One advantage that you will have when you choose to fish in this state is the abundance of blue ribbon fisheries.

A few examples of these top fisheries that offer Colorado fly fishing facilities include the Frying Pan, Gunnison, Roaring Fork, South Platte and Rio Grande rivers. Some other options that you might be able to choose from for a successful fishing expedition include the Spinney Mountain Reservoir, Delaney Lake, or Gore Creek. To narrow down these various bodies of water, think about whether you prefer to go fly fishing on still bodies of water, or those that are in motion. There are different techniques associated with both rivers and lakes, so you will want to brush up on your skills on both of these options before you head out.

Another factor to think about is the time of year in which you plan to go Colorado fly fishing. There are fly fishing facilities that are open year-round, but the majority of anglers will choose to go fishing in the late summer months. The best months in this region are considered to be in between July and September, when fish numbers are at their peak. This is also a relaxing time to be up in the Rocky Mountains, before the weather gets too cold to spend an enjoyable day out on the lake or river.
