WHAT TO EXPECT

Private water is the answer when you've fished the public stretches and want something quieter. We have arrangements with three working ranches in Park County and the South Park area. You book through us, we handle the permit and the rod-day fee, and you fish water that sees four to six rods on a busy day. A guide is optional but strongly recommended for first-time visitors. These stretches are remote and the access is specific. Most groups book a guide for the first day and self-fish thereafter.
