Fishing the Bighorns in Wyoming
An elusive Golden hooked in one of Wyoming's
high country creeks. Crystal waters brimming with swimming trophies.
These living treasures lure royalty, presidents, and the world's
fishing fanatics to the banks of bold Wyoming. There are areas in
Wyoming that boast more than 2,000 fighting fish per mile of stream.
If that's what you are looking for, you've come to the right place.
The Bighorn Mountains and the Middle Fork of
the Powder River offer some real rod and reel hot spots. Fast running
river waters cut through Tongue Canyon in the Bighorn National Forest.
Rainbows, Browns and Brookies are abundant here. Misty Moon Trail
takes anglers into Cloud Peak's Primitive Area for extended trips
and great fishing. Here you'll find rainbows, cutthroat, cutbows,
greyling, and splake.
Catch 'em quick from Cody's Shoshone River, loaded
with Cutthroats, Rainbows, and Browns. Feisty Cutbow hybrids streak
through Big Horn Mountain streams. Casting is cool under the giant
cottonwoods near Connor Battlefield Historic Site in Ranchester,
Wyoming.
Meadowlark Lake, in the Bighorn Mountains, offer
anglers with families a chance to sneak off to quiet streams while
the rest of the gang gets caught up in other wild west adventures.
Bet on Wyoming's
fishing derbies for family fun, beginner's luck, and big
prizes for the happy caster who reels in the big one!
