Whether you’re a trout-fishing enthusiast or a novice angler with an urge to hook a magnificent Rainbow trout, our remote mountain lakes, rivers, ponds and streams within our million-acre Angling Guide Territory will fulfill your dreams.
Later in the spring we move to high-alpine lakes abundant with wild Rainbow trout averaging 1–4 pounds.
Sight cast along the shoreline shallows for the cruising wild Rainbows, or sink the line for the old boys hiding in the dark and deep.
If all you want to do all day is catch fish, we recommend you fish Spruce Lake.
This alpine jewel is surrounded by a magnificent panorama of snow-covered peaks and wild mountain meadows.
Protected by its remoteness, access is by float plane or horse only.
Spruce Lake is teeming with a natural population of Rainbow trout averaging 2–4 pounds.
Extensive shoreline shallows makes this Lake ideal for dry fly-fishing or for spin casters.
Fishers from novice to expert will enjoy the action of these healthy trout in perfect fighting condition from May through October.
Transportation is by float plane or by horse
Later in the summer, these still relatively unexplored and wild upper sections of remote rivers offer rewards for the more adventurous and skilled fly casters that know their way around fast moving water.
Rewards come in many sizes, with Dolly’s up to 5 plus pounds.
Late summer is the best time to explore these rivers.
These rivers are high and medium-gradient freestone streams that offer excellent fishing for trophy Dolly’s and Rainbows.
Walk and wade through these pristine waters with breathtaking backdrops.
Cast your fly through boulder-strewn riffles and runs.
One pool leads to the next, each with a new challenge.
Transportation is by float plane/foot, horse or vehicle.
Learn the art of fly fishing from our Licensed Guides. They will teach you lake and stream fishing techniques, casting skills, both wet and dry fly presentations, an introduction to fly-tying, entomology, fish habitat, species identification, regulations and safety. Transportation is by vehicle, returning nightly to our Ranch. We also teach avid fishing persons to be Licensed Fishing Guides. The ultimate dream job (see our Angler Guide Training Program).
All-inclusive adventures include accommodation, meals, guide(s) and transportation during the adventure.
Accommodation is our Ranch or alpine camp(s). Fishing adventures are ideal for both individuals or small customized groups. Fishing licenses are available on-site. Access to alpine camp(s) by horse is suited for beginner/intermediate to advance riders.

| “Our stay was “Wonderful”. We wanted for nothing. All of our needs were taken care of. Cozy tent, hot showers and hearty meals. The fishing was great fun. The fish jump and shake and are quite a kick to catch. They even make tasty appetizers for dinner. I can’t say enough about our guide. I fully enjoyed this experience. I understand the amount of planning and work involved here and admire what a great job you’ve done.” | |
