Wade your way into the water with Chris and prepare for an action-packed day of Trout fishing on the fly! You'll get to enjoy some of the best scenery and Trout fishing that Oklahoma has to offer with this trip on the Mountain Fork River. The Lower Mountain Fork River is a year-round trout fishery located in the beautiful Ouachita Mountains of southeastern Oklahoma just north of Broken Bow. One of the best tailwaters in the South, this beautiful river sustains natural Trout reproduction for great year-round fishing in both size and numbers. 20+ inch Brown and Rainbow Trout are caught often, and the Oklahoma state record Brown Trout was caught here (weighing 17.4 lbs!). On this half or full-day trip, Chris will take you to the Lower Mountain Fork River where you'll wade in the banks and go after some Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout. These Trout-heavy rivers are excellent for throwing your first fly-fishing casts, knocking off the rust on your casting skills, or going for as many fish as you can. Chris and his team of expert guides will show you plenty of tips to help get one on the line and are happy to guide anglers of any skill level! Chris or one of his guides will provide all rods, reels, waders and boots. They run Temple Fork Outfitters rods and reels with Cortland fly line. From Midge to Hexagenia and in between, the flies you will fish are specific to the river. All you need to bring is an Oklahoma fishing license. We recommend bringing polarized sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat and any snacks or drinks you'll need on the water. You're also welcome to bring your own fly-fishing gear. Book your trip with Chris today and get ready for a productive day of fishing! Read More

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.

    Had a great half day on the river with Chris. We went right to the fish and a very productive session. I was concerned about severe weather in the area but Chris kept me informed in the days before and everything turned out fine. This is a great trip for people who want to try fly fishing ... I will definitely be going back.

    Best fishing lesson I ever had. Kit was so personable I didn't realize he was educating me while we enjoyed time on the water. Good guide, better guy. Highly recommend

    Trip: Lower Mountain Fork River

  • ★★★★★
    Chris and Kit were both amazing. When the first fishing spot was loaded with anglers, he took us to his secret location off the beaten path. It was secluded and jumping with fish. It was my first time fly fishing, but after he taught us the cast, we were reeling in trout in no time. I'd book him again if I was fishing in the area.
