Big Laramie River

Big Laramie River Guided Fly Fishing Trips:

 

Most days we have the river all to ourselves while fishing.  For this reason, the river and trout don't see a lot of angling pressure. Wade fishing is the best way to cover this water effectively.

The Laramie River may be floated with river rafts during the spring months when the flows are suitable. However, there is a short window of opportunity for this, so book your guided fly fishing float trips early! Be sure to check daily river flows before your fishing trip https://waterdata.usgs.gov/wy/nwis/uv/?site_no=06660000&PARAmeter_cd=00065,00060,00010

The Big Laramie river above Woods Landing near Jelm, Wyoming is managed as a wild brown trout fishery.  Although, there are plenty of opportunities to catch rainbow and cutthroat trout.  This pristine blue ribbon trout stream has not been stocked since 1979.

This river is similar to the spring creeks of Montana, Utah, and Idaho.  Although, it also has the ruggedness of a western freestone river. The wild brown trout here can be easily spooked. Anglers here need to know the art of stealthy fly fishing. Every day on Big Laramie River can be a fun and challenging fly fishing experience.

Closer to Laramie, the Monolith Ranch Access Area provides anglers with trophy browns and rainbows in the 25-30 inch class! Big articulated custom streamers are the name of the game! We specialize in trophy trout streamer fishing.  Namely, our preferred method of fishing.  Check out our best custom articulated streamer patterns designed specifically for this water.https://highplainsflyfishing.com/shop/

In conclusion, fishing access is partially limited due to private ownership. Get away from the crowds and experience this "Wyomings best kept secret" with High Plains Fly Fishing!
