Fishing

Free Vacation Packet Send a Postcard
For many people, fishing is a way of life. There’s something about wandering along a mountain stream, searching for quiet eddies or undercut banks where the trout lie waiting or drifting across a lake, rod out, hat pulled down over your eyes, that gets into your soul and never leaves. If you’ve got the fishing bug, we’ve got the waters and fish here in Wind River Country to snag your interest.
Wind River Country Permit Information
Some of the best fishing around is just off the road at Wyoming Game and Fish Department public fishing access areas. Visit their website for current Wyoming Fishing Regulations.  There are pull offs on the Wind River near Dubois, the Little Popo Agie near Lander, and numerous other spots in between. So if you’re passing through, there’s no excuse not to stop for a cast or two. Who knows, before you know it the sun may have set and you’re still wading and casting.

Wind River Country’s many lakes and reservoirs provide opportunities for a different kind of day. Here you’ll be chasing sport fish like large-mouth bass and walleye from the deck of a boat. In the winter, many of the lakes in Wind River Country freeze solid and make for great ice fishing.

Finally, Wind River Country’s other claim to fame is its wilderness rivers and lakes where you can enjoy the solitude of the backcountry with some exceptional fishing and eating.

A number of fishing guides offer trips ranging from an early morning jaunt in the front country to a multi-day excursion into the mountains, so you are bound to find the kind of fishing you like to do here in Wind River Country.
