Guided Fly Fishing Trips

Glenwood Springs Outdoors offers both half day and full day guided fly fishing trips on some of the most scenic and productive trout waters in all of Colorado. Our team of expert guides brings many years of guiding experience on the Roaring Fork, Colorado, and Frying Pan Rivers.

Whether you’re new to fly fishing or a very experienced angler, our goal is to give you an enjoyable, successful, and memorable day of fishing that will keep you coming back year after year.

We provide everything you will need including waders, boots, rods, reels, and tippet. Bring along some lunch. As a result of the pandemic we no longer provide lunches. We do not provide a Colorado fishing license. You can purchase one in the shop or online using the link below.

You are welcome to pay for your guide trip with cash or a different credit card the day of the trip. Please be advised that cancellations made with less than 48 hours notice will be charged a $200.00 fee per angler. Extenuating circumstances can and will be taken into consideration.

What to Bring

The weather in Colorado can be quite unpredictable. Fishing at elevation is amazing, but can bring rapid changes in temperature, wind, and precipitation. To assist you with being more prepared for your day on the water, here is a list of items you should consider having:

  • Polarized Sunglasses
  • Baseball Cap/Brimmed Hat
  • Sunscreen
  • Some lunch or other snacks
  • Insect Repellent
  • Rain Gear
  • Socks
  • Layered clothing for wearing under waders (i.e. long johns, fleece pants, etc. jeans are not recommended under waders, as they can be uncomfortable and do not wick moisture well).

For winter wade trips, the key will be warmth so you will need to take extra care to ensure that you have warm undergarments and socks. You will be dressing for snow conditions.
