Unforgettable fly-fishing experiences on the Snake, Green and Salt Rivers and inside Yellowstone National Park. Jackson Hole is a world-class destination for fishing trips, but it’s especially magical for fly fishing. Many places around the world offer excellent fly fishing experiences, but few places offer an opportunity quite like Jackson Hole. Between incredible, coveted catches and breathtaking scenery, Wyoming is a true haven for anglers.

Fly Fishing on Flat Creek on the Elk Refuge offers the only public spring creek fishing in the Jackson Hole valley. The Snake River fine-spotted cutthroat trout in this fishery have PhDs. Only those truly devoted to the art of fly fishing tend to catch fish and catching one a day is often your goal. Known to be more of a hunting and stalking fishery, when you do look up you’ll have views of the Sleeping Indian, Teton Range and the Town of Jackson.
