Fish Vibrant Headwaters

The Snake river is a favorite spot for keen eyed nymphers, wade fly fishers, wind whipped rafters and river guides, and adrenaline seeking kayakers alike. In the world of fly fishing, the most important aspect of the Snake river is its head waters. The headwaters of the snake river are world renowned for their pristine clarity and  they lead to heart lake which pierces nearly into the center of Yellowstone's eco system. 
Come book a guided fly fishing trip with us in one of our favorite blue ribbon filled ecosystems.  
I have been a client of GYFO’s owner, Chad Olsen, for over 20 years. Whether you are fishing in Montana or international destinations, GYFO always delivers. I look forward to adding Thermopolis, Wyoming, to the many places we have fished together this summer.
