Guided Fly Fishing Trips on the Upper Green River

Floating in the shadows of the Wind River Range, you’ll be fishing for trophy brown, rainbow, and cutthroat trout on our Upper Green River guided fishing trips—a premier Wyoming fly fishing experience. There are very few outfitters that fish this stretch, and we are one of the lucky few.


The Green River flows naturally out of Green River Lakes at the base of the Wind River Mountains, offering a true freestone river experience with huge rainbows, browns, and cutthroats. With less pressure than the nearby national parks, this trip is ideal for those seeking a true wild-country adventure. Wild, fast, and powerful trout will test both your skill and endurance.


We have a private access ramp that puts you on some of the least-pressured, highest-quality trophy trout water in the Rockies. Join us in the summer or fall for one of the best Wyoming fly fishing experiences we offer.

Why Fish the Upper Green With Reel Deal Anglers

Where You’ll Fish

The Upper Green begins at Green River Lakes at the base of Squaretop Mountain and runs south through the Upper Green River Basin before reaching Pinedale. We float the middle sections of the river on full-day trips, including access to our private ramp. Drive time from Pinedale is 30 to 45 minutes depending on the put-in. Trips typically run from a morning launch to a mid-afternoon takeout, with a streamside lunch in between.
