ALL INCLUSIVE FLY FISHING PACKAGES
These Fly Fishing Packages were designed for every angler that wants to make sure they catch every fly fishing opportunity Yosemite National Park has to offer.
Your private, fly fishing guide will take you to the best rivers, creeks and lakes inside Yosemite and they will make sure that you have the upper hand on all the local fly fishing knowledge. With over 1,300 miles of rivers and creeks and more than 300 lakes and ponds to tempt your flies, Yosemite provides amazing opportunities for all experience levels. With our once-in-a-life-time tours, you will shred the guessing game of fly fishing in Yosemite and maybe even add a beautiful and rare California Golden to your list of trophy trout.
We've constructed two different Fly Fishing Packages for our guests to choose from.
The Five Day Fly Fishing Package will give you plenty of time to fish many of Yosemite's main bodies of water and it will also allow time for you to get into the back country of Yosemite, away from all of the commotion of the valley.
The Seven Day Fly Fishing Package was meticulously assembled for the visitors that want to spend a little more time being consumed by Yosemite's magical landscape. This tour opens up just the right amount of time to reach those beautiful back country rivers and lakes, that might offer up a rare chance to catch a large back country Rainbow trout.
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
Our Yosemite Fly Fishing Coordinators have designed our five and seven day tours to make sure that all of Yosemite's main bodies of water and majestic locations are incorporated. Once you decide on how many days to spend in Yosemite, head over to our "Tour Details" section to learn more about our three "Custom Package" options.
If five or seven days is to long for your group, please contact our adventure coordinators to inquire about a 'Custom Tour Quote" and we will create an Inclusive Tour designed to meet your personal wants and needs.
