Trip questions

How much is a guided float trip?

A Full Day Float (6 to 8 hours) is $675 for two anglers or $650 for one. A Half Day Float (3 to 4 hours) is $575 for two or $550 for one. A Half Day Scenic Float is $500 for up to two guests. Multi-day trips are priced on request.

How many anglers per boat?

One or two anglers per guide. Groups of 3 or more can be arranged with additional guides and boats. We never put more than two boats on one stretch.

Is lunch included?

Full-day trips include a streamside lunch and beverages. Half-day trips include snacks and drinks. Dietary needs are always accommodated.

Why only half days in late July and early August?

From July 20 to August 15 Jason books half days only. Warm water stresses trout, and “hoot owl” restrictions often stop fishing at 2 pm, so trips start early and finish early to protect the fish.

Let’s get you on the water.

Pick a full or half day float, choose your date and hold it online. Rods, reels, flies and lunch are on us.
