River Rats

River Rats Colorado's Most Unique Whitewater Fishing Adventure We take guests on a commercial raft trip on a remote and largely inaccessible section of the Gunnison River.

Horses are used to pack our gear one mile down into the depths of the Gunnison Gorge; there are no roads to the river, and access is difficult. The canyon is enchanting, and the scenery is spectacular from beginning to end. Everywhere there are calm, deep green pools famous for their abundance of rainbow and brown trout. Be one of the lucky few who have ever fished the Gunnison Gorge! As one of si

x companies permitted to operate in the Gunnison Gorge, we are dedicated to providing a quality wilderness experience. Our river staff is professional, enthusiastic, and has decades of experience. We are fly fishing experts who have added whitewater skills to our repertoire in order to take our clients to this remote sanctuary. This is a first class angling experience—we throw in the scenery, the great food, and the unforgettable evenings around the campfire for free. To maximize the fly-fishing experience and to allow our guides to interact with their clients, trips are conducted with two anglers per boat. We require a minimum of four clients per trip and a maximum of eight. If there are less than four in your party, there is a possibility of combining groups. The Gunnison Gorge is one of the last true wilderness fly-fishing adventures in the West. To learn more about this trip (i.e. launch dates, meeting place, gear list, etc.), please call us at 1-970-300-2101 and ask to speak with one of our guides.
