About

"You can't be unhappy in the middle of a big beautiful river" - Jim Harrison

UpRiver Fly Fishing is family owned and operated by myself, Kayla and my husband Andrew. Collectively we have over 30 years of experience among the rapids and eddies of the Arkansas River and Brown's Canyon National Monument. We have a deep sense of gratitude for Colorado's wild places and we want to share that with our clients.  We strive for a fishing experience that cannot be replicated by other outfitters.

Fishing the Arkansas River

UpRiver Fly Fishing specializes in float and walk-wade trout fishing adventures based out of Buena Vista Colorado- a short drive from Colorado Springs & Denver! All of our excursions are suitable for beginners & experts alike. 

 

Expert guideshigh quality equipment and an exceptional meal add to the exhilaration of landing beautiful browns, rainbows and cutthroat!

Our Gold Medal Trout Fishery

In 2014, 102 miles of the Arkansas River were added to the list of Gold Medal trout fisheries, the longest stretch of

trophy fly fishing water in the state of Colorado.

The Arkansas is a freestone river which boasts thriving populations of Brown Trout and stocked populations of healthy Rainbow Trout. Post run-off the Arkansas becomes one of the best hopper-dropper fisheries in the country.

UpRiver Fly Fishing is bonded, licensed and insured and is a registered outfitter with the Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area (AHRA)

UpRiver Fly Fishing is an equal opportunity provider and is operated under special use permit with the Pike San Isabel National Forest.
