The Colorado and Arkansas rivers boast miles of fantastic fishing locations. Take to the waters with a professional guide—who might just share a secret spot! You’ll be fishing for rainbow, cutthroat, and brown trout. All levels of anglers are welcome.

After meeting your guide at the Arkansas Valley Adventure office, he or she will give an extensive safety talk, and then discuss equipment and strategies including: casting, line management, trout habitat, fly selection, hooking, playing, and landing fish. Then it’s off to the water! Your guide will spend the rest of the afternoon, weather permitting, on the river. All fishing destinations are determined by your guide, who will factor in weather conditions, hatch patterns, and water levels. Many guides have their own secret spots, so you may not know where you’ll be fishing until the last minute! A catered lunch on the shore will be provided.
