FISHING

The glacier fed alpine lakes and streams offer a fantastic opportunity for fly fishing. With seven species of trout found in the area, the fishing in the Wind River Mountains near Lander is undeniably world class. While many waterways are accessible by car, there are hundreds of rarely visited spots available to those who are undeterred by a hearty day hike. For more information about fishing around Lander and Wyoming, get in touch with our good friends George or Hank Hunker by visiting their website Sweetwater Fishing Expeditions. Wyoming State and Tribal fishing licenses are available for purchase in store.
