The perfect introduction to fly fishing and backpacking in the Rocky Mountains.
Rocky Mountain National Park is the perfect setting for one of our fishing Adventures. The mountains are packed with numerous small streams and lakes that are absolutely loaded with eager trout. We will start the trip off with a lot of one on one instruction on a river within casting distance of our frontcountry campsite. After everyone has got the hang of catching, fighting, and releasing some trout we will head into the backcountry in search of some bigger fish. The amazing adventure will culminate with a chance at a trophy trout during a float fishing trip on one of Colorado’s most famous rivers, and a delicious banquet dinner before everyone heads home the next day.
