About Your Trip

Come join Tyler, a seasoned fly fishing guide, on this exciting trip on Idaho's beautiful Saint Joe River! Nestled in the heart of the rugged Idaho panhandle, the St. Joe is known for its crystal clear water, freestone riverbottom, and abundant population of native fish. On this trip, you'll be taking aim at Westslope Cutthroat Trout, a gorgeous Rocky Mountain trout that's a blast to catch, and a challenge for flyfisherman of all levels.

As you cast your line and wait for the tug, you'll have a perfect chance to take in the stunning scenery that surrounds you. The St. Joe River winds its way through towering pine forests and meadows filled with wildflowers, providing the perfect backdrop for a day of fishing.

Plus, with Tyler manning the oars on the driftboat, you'll be able to tackle any stretch of water you want, whether that means targeting deep pockets or hidden seams where big fish love to hang out and wait for a meal. Depending on the weather and the hatch, Tyler will make sure that you're throwing the perfect flies to bag a trophy fish. That could include dry flies if you're seeing rises, nymphs if you're not, and streamers if you're looking to mix it up.

With Tyler's expert guidance, you'll practice the ins and outs of fly fishing and have a great chance to hone your skills on this premier trout stream. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced angler, this trip is sure to be a highlight of your Idaho vacation. So grab your rod and reel and get out there!

About Your Guide

Captain Tyler

Outfitter

For Tyler, spending time in the wild places brings things into alignment! He grew up in Colorado North of Fort Collins in a family that valued outdoor pursuits of all kinds. He spent countless days fly fishing Laramie Plains lakes, North Park, Yampa River and "The Reef" and "Mile" on The North Platte River in Wyoming. Falls were spent packing into the wilderness areas on horseback chasing elk followed by a Nebraska deer hunt and some years squeezing in a Wyoming deer hunt! Winters were spent skiing the front range and hunting geese out of a buried pit east of Fort Collins. He followed his life partner, Sierra, to Idaho who supported his dream of building a fly shop, and outfitter business. The crossover from riggin' horses to riggin' boats for whitewater and fishing trips was some what seamless. Running boats instead of horse means no more feeding livestock which leads to more time angling and and hiking with guests and friends! I truly look forward to sharing wild places with wonderful people.
