A Few Spots Left

Are you itching for summer fishing every year? Thermopolis, Wyoming and the Big Horn river are another hidden gem. When other locations are still looking at run off and snow, average temps in May are 71 degrees at an elevation of 4,331. Historically speaking, this tailwater (below Boysen reservoir) offers some great nymph and streamer fishing in the morning and dry fly fishing in the afternoon during mid-May. The browns, rainbows and cutthroat average 16-18”. 

The river is flanked with beautiful red rock canyons. Thermopolis is known for having the largest mineral hot springs in the world so you can make time for a soak while you are in town. The sections of river that fish best are very close to town so your morning commute is generally less than 15 minutes!

About The Host

We’ll be fishing with an award-winning Orvis-endorsed shop group that has been guiding trips and developing their program in Thermopolis for several years. If you've done the Green River trip, you'll remember these gentlemen and they are excited to have us in Thermopolis too.
