We are located in the heart of the Idaho Wilderness surounded by the best
fly fishing for both Steelhead in the fall and Trout in the summer.
Our location provides anglers with
uncrowded and unrivalled opportunity to catch
steelhead in one of the most remote areas in the lower 48 states.
Our fly fishing lodge is located 36 miles from the end
of the road in the heart of the Frank Church
Wilderness where you will have access to 20 miles of
the Salmon River's best steelhead fishing.
Swing flies on your spey rod in the ripples or run
an egg pattern off an indicator in the slower
pockets. Our fly fishing guide will navigate
you and 1 other person from one hole to the next in
a custom raft with fly fishing frame. All
transportation to and from the raft and fly fishing lodge is by
Jet Boat.
Fly fishing for Steelhead is best in October and November
in the Fall. We customize trips for all
experience levels and single or double hand rods, you can fish from
the boat occasionally if you get tired of wading.
Some terminal tackle and rods will be provided if
needed. Catching Steelhead is what we live for, let
us bring you the dedication and quality you deserve
and expect.
