Wind River Brown

Great Brown caught on the lower Wind River.  Fish are really starting to take a hard look at terrestrials.  I hooked and moved plenty of browns to the surface fishing a large Fat Albert and Chubby Chernobyl.  Get ready for a great hopper season!!

Who Needs Fireworks On The 4th

Happy kids enjoying Wyoming's outdoors

My Step Son Jordan enjoying his 4th of July!!!

 Sorry for the lack of updates.  Here are a couple pictures from our fishing trip above Dubois on the 4th of July.  Featured above is Wesley Briggs and my step son Jordan Vroman.  I think the smiles say it all, but we had a great day on the water.  The fish were willing to come up and take dries all day long and there wasn't another soul insight.  It was great being able to spend time with friends and watch the future generation enjoy the outdoors and the sport of fly fishing!!! 

OH MY LORD!!!!

I seen these pictures today and diffidently had to send out a AT A BOY to the Briggs boys!  With kids like these out there enjoying the outdoors and fly fishing the future is surely looking very bright for our sport.  I know they are chomping at the bit to get out this spring and something tells me they are going to make it happen!  Stay tuned for more pics.

It has been a long winter filled with very little fishing but last Sunday with the help of some good friends and of course the wives we made it happen.  We had been at a wrestling tournament in Casper all weekend and at 9 o'clock Saturday night after a few cocktails my friend Jake Briggs and I finally planned out the logistics and convinced the wives it was the right thing to do.  We met up with friend/guide Beau Covert and had an outstanding day on the river!  A big thanks goes out to Beau and Jake for making it happen!!!

Wind River Brown



Well here we are at the end of the fishing season.  Well at least at the end of the busy fishing season.  Due to the high water that we experienced a majority of the summer the Wind River is is great shape right now!  This time of year is your best chance to catch a trophy fish up here in the upper Wind River Valley.  The leaves are changing and the browns are starting to move.  If your are going to be up near Dubois during the month of October and are wanting to fish I would HIGHLY recommend getting out on the water and fishing a big fall colored streamer!!  This is the time when big Brown Trout become very aggressive and will eat a big fly. 

Here at the shop we are offering a special on all of our guided trips.  Book a trip and receive 15% off, plus another 20% off any items you buy in the shop!!!  Come experience the solitude and beauty of this time of year by fishing on the Wind River near Dubois, Wyoming.

Please Call (307) 851.4191 to reserve your guided fishing trip!!!!     

The Scott A3 Fly Rod

My good friend Trevor with his first fish caught on a fly.
Using his trusted Scott A3 5wt.

Well my good friend John Dobson (Modobi) stopped by the shop today to visit about new products soon to be on the market.  One that I'm really excited about is the new Scott A4 fly rods.  These are the new version of the Scott A3's with just a few changes such as the color, new reel seats and maybe a little bit more stiffness to the action.  This means that it is time to move the A3's out and make room for the new A4's.  The A3 is a great rod for the beginner and advanced angler.  With it's meduim/fast action the A3's can handle any type of fishing situation you are faced with.  At the shop I currently have only two left.  A 9ft 5wt and also a 9ft 6wt.  They retail for $355.00 and we are going to let them go for $270.00.  If you have any questions please feel free to email me or call me directly.  We will gladly ship them to anywhere in the United States for free!  (307) 851.4191
