What types of golden trout fishing trips are common?

The most common fishing techniques are fly fishing and wading.

How much does a golden trout fishing trip cost?

Prices for golden trout can range anywhere from about $360 to $440, but the average price for a half day trip for golden trout is $350. The average price for a full day trip for golden trout is $450.

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.

    Fantastic guide. Couldn't recommend more. Took the time to show us the art of fly fishing and the South Fork of the King's River. You won't go wrong with Scott!
