  We have exclusive rights to over 4 miles of the Fraser River.

     In the 1940's and 50's, Grand County streams enticed President Eisenhower to spend his free time here so that he could tantalize the trout with a fly and rod. His favorite fly, the H&L Variant still works today. We also fish on the wonderful Colorado River by wading or by boat. The float fishing adds incredible scenery to exceptional fishing. If you have always wanted to land a trophy trout on a fly rod, then you will want to join us on Grey Reef in April, May or June. Grey Reef was #1 on the "American Angler" list of the 25 best places to go for big fish.
