trip description for Roaring Fork River Fly Fishing in Basalt

Head out for a memorable 4 or 6-hour adventure in the Colorado Rocky Mountains with Chris! On this fly-fishing trip you'll be going after Brown Trout, Cutthroat Trout, and Rainbow Trout on the aptly-named Roaring Fork River. The Roaring Fork River is a Gold Medal Stream, which means that it supports at least 1000 pounds of fish per mile of river. This float and wade river is known for its large Rainbow and Brown Trout, averaging from 12 to 18 inches in length. Whether you're new to fly fishing or not, Chris is eager to help. He has been fly fishing all over the country for over 30 years, so expect to get some bites! Chris will provide the rods and reels, and any waders you might need at an additional cost. He will even provide a tasty lunch for you, so all you need to bring is a valid Colorado Fishing License. Enjoy your day out on the river with Chris! Read More

A great introductory trip, you’ll have the opportunity to learn to cast, tie some knots and then have plenty of time to practice your new skills. Advanced anglers will enjoy a morning or afternoon of great fishing as well! You will drive to one of Ken and his team’s best fishing spots to target some Rainbow and Brown Trout. **Full-Day:** This trip is 7-8 hours.

How much does a Colorado rainbow trout fishing trip cost?

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

  • ★★★★★
    This was my second trip with Ken and the first was excellent... but he still managed to provide us with another fantastic day. I had a novice fly fisherman with me but Ken put us on lots of brown trout, some rainbows and a rare Tiger trout. He is a great guide and I will use him again and highly recommend Ken to anyone of any level who wants to fish in Denver area.
