We offer guided fly fishing trips in various locations around Jackson Hole, including the Snake River, The Green River, and The New Fork River. Our guides are experienced and knowledgeable about the best fishing spots in the region.

When you book a guided trip with us, we will provide all the necessary fly-fishing gear, including rods, reels, flies, and terminal tackle. However, you’ll need to bring appropriate clothing, such as waders and a fishing hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, and any personal items you may need during the trip.

Absolutely! We offer an outfitting service to assist beginners in selecting the appropriate fly-fishing outfit and tackle. Our experienced staff will help you choose the right rod, reel, line, and other gear based on your needs, budget, and fishing goals.
Fishing licenses can be purchased online through the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s website. You can also visit local sporting goods stores or the Game and Fish Department office in Jackson Hole to obtain a fishing license.
The Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s website is the best resource for fishing information and the rules and regulations specific to the state. It provides up-to-date information on fishing seasons, limits, special regulations, and any closures or restrictions that may be in place.
The weight of the rod, reel, and line you should purchase depends on the type of fishing you plan to do. In our area, a 4-6 weight rod is versatile and suitable for most trout fishing situations. Match the reel and line to the rod weight for optimal performance.
For most trout fishing situations, a weight-forward floating line is the most commonly used and versatile option. It allows for easy casting and presentation of flies on the surface or just below it. However, specific fishing conditions or techniques may require different types of lines, such as sinking or sinking-tip lines.
Typically, 100 to 150 yards of backing is sufficient for most trout fishing scenarios. To attach the backing to the reel, you’ll first tie an Arbor Knot around the reel spindle. Then, wind the backing onto the reel, making sure it is evenly distributed and tightly wound.
Fluorocarbon leaders are less visible underwater than monofilament leaders, making them advantageous in situations where fish are particularly wary or the water is clear. Mono leaders, on the other hand, tend to be more supple and are better suited for dry fly fishing or situations where presentation and delicacy are crucial.
Tippet is a separate, thinner section of monofilament or fluorocarbon line that you attach to the end of your leader. It allows for easier fly changes and serves as the final connection between the leader and the fly. To attach tippet, use a surgeon’s knot, blood knot, or a loop-to-loop connection.
Mayflies are aquatic insects that belong to the order Ephemeroptera. They are an essential food source for trout and other fish species in many rivers and lakes. Mayflies have a distinct life cycle, transitioning from nymphs (juveniles) to emergers and then adult winged insects. They are known for their delicate appearance and the hatches they create, attracting feeding fish.
Nymphs are the immature stage of aquatic insects, including mayflies, caddisflies, and stoneflies. They live underwater and resemble miniature versions of the adult insects. Nymph patterns imitate these underwater insects and are often used to catch fish when they are feeding below the water’s surface.
Dry flies are designed to imitate adult insects that float on the water’s surface. They are typically made with materials that make them buoyant, such as feathers or synthetic fibers. Dry fly fishing involves casting the fly onto the surface and imitating the movements of an insect in distress or laying eggs, enticing fish to rise and take the fly.
Streamers are large, often bulky flies that imitate baitfish, leeches, or other large aquatic creatures. They are typically fished below the water’s surface, either by stripping or swinging them through the water. Streamer fishing is often associated with targeting larger predatory fish, such as trout, bass, or pike. The action of the streamer can trigger aggressive strikes from these fish.

They were patient and wonderful with our group of first timers! Next time I will pack a cooler of beer ;) Jay MaholtzNovember 4, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a wonderful experience with Nic , fishing both the Snake and the Salt rivers. His knowledge of the sport is second to none. I will definitely be back next year for another trip!! Very professional guide service from start to finish!!! Thank you for an amazing experience!! Pete ZinnanteOctober 28, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I begin? I came in nervous about the trip. But Ryan made the whole day a blast. He was very knowledgeable on the river and made us feel very welcomed. I would definitely recommend Teton Troutfitters to anyone looking to get out and catch a trout on fly. A+ on the day!! peter duffyOctober 27, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fly fished globally for many years. Some great guides in Jackson and these guys are part that. Holly WaldrupOctober 25, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. TETON TROUTFITTERS ARE THE BEST!! We had Ryan as our guide and he knew EXACTLY where the cutty’s were. I’ve gone on many fishing trips with my partner but this is the first time I didn’t want to leave and I will for sure be coming back. I caught my first trout on a dry fly at the end of October. These guys are the best, 10/10!!!! Claude LockeOctober 24, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike was great and we had a blast fishing the Snake River, thanks! Nick KaschalkOctober 11, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was one of the best fishing experiences I’ve ever had and I couldn’t think of a more beautiful place to have it. Also if you’re coming to Wyoming and you want to fish, Teton Troutfitters is the way to go. Nic was an amazing guide. He was so efficient at getting us into some fish. Some of most fish we caught were in spots where we watched other guide services breeze right through and I attribute that directly to Nic’s knowledge of the river and where the fish are. Nic also gave me so many tips and pointers that I think will benefit me greatly when fly fishing by myself back home. This company exceeded my expectations and if I am fortunate enough to come back to Jackson, I will definitely be booking with Teton Troutfitters. Thanks guys! Natalie ArndtOctober 7, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a FANTASTIC time. Great guides and great weather. Mike, Warren, and Rainey were top notch. We will be coming back, no doubt. Danny M.October 6, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an awesome day fishing with Ryan a few weeks ago. 10/10 experience. I've been out a bunch over the years (although never on the Snake River) but it was my girlfriend's first time fly fishing - he did a great job teaching / guiding us both and is overall just a great guy / fun person to be out there with. We both caught a ton of fish. Looking forward to getting back out there next summer. Dave LonerganOctober 4, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter and I fished the Snake River Canyon with Ryan in August of this year. We had a great day, and Ryan was an excellent guide. While he takes his fishing seriously, he was also great about keeping light, with great tips and instruction when needed. Plenty of fish came to the boat, but even if they didn’t it would have been a great and memorable day. Thanks Ryan!
