NORTH PLATTE OVERNIGHT FISHING TRIP DETAILS

You will arrive at our tent camp on the North Platte the afternoon before the first day of floating. That evening you can wade fish the PRIVATE section of the North Platte that surrounds our camp or just relax by the fire with your favorite beverage while our staff prepares a delicious dutch oven dinner. The next morning we will eat breakfast and drive to Bennett Peak (water levels permitting) to launch the boats. We will spend the day floating and wade fishing the North Platte (12 miles) and pull into camp that evening, at which time you can unwind or hit the water again to wade fish until dinner is ready. The next day we will start off with a tasty breakfast before floating from camp to the town of Saratoga (12 miles) where your gear from camp will be waiting for you.  To learn more about the upper North Platte RIver click here.

FOUR SEASONS ANGLERS TENT CAMP  

Our camp, which is on private property along the North Platte River,

is very comfortable with large sleeping tents, cots, cot pads, lanterns,

camp chairs, fire ring, private toilets, and beautiful surroundings.

Because our camp is located on private property, we don’t have to

worry about reserving a campsite or having other campers close to us.

This seclusion ensures you that you will have a true Wyoming

camping/fishing experience.  Your group will also be the only one in

camp so you don’t have to worry about sharing camp with anyone you                

don’t know.

UPPER NORTH PLATTE RIVER

At the foot of the Snowy Range Mountains flows a hidden gem through the Wyoming plains, the North Platte River. This pristine freestone river, nestled in the Saratoga Valley, offers a rare combination of Blue Ribbon trout fishing, spectacular views, abundant wildlife, and no crowds. This freestone fishery begins in North Park Colorado at the confluence of Grizzly and Little Grizzly Creek and flows north into Wyoming picking up several other small streams along the way. The North Platte continues north through Wyoming over 300 miles before it heads east and reaches the Nebraska border. On its travels the characteristics of the river change dramatically from a deep canyons with tight narrow runs to wide meandering flats in the lower pasture and high desert sections. The 60 miles between the Routt access and the town of Saratoga is all considered a Blue Ribbon trout fishery and has not been stocked since 1979. In 1982 the Wyoming Game & Fish Department instituted a slot limit, which requires all fish between 10-16 inches to be released immediately. They also designated this a flies and lures only stretch. The combination of these conservation regulations drastically increased the number of trout per mile. The North Platte now claims 4000 fish per mile consisting mainly of browns and rainbows, with a few Snake River cutthroats. The North Platte River offers a multitude of wade fishing and float fishing opportunities. There are over 20 miles of public water in the Medicine Bow/Routt National Forest alone, with several other significant public sections between Colorado and Saratoga.
