WRF Guides
At Western Rivers Flyfishers, it’s not about the number of fish, the size, shape or species. It’s about the red rock cliffs towering overhead, the slow slurp of a trout in a shadow at dusk. It’s the sound of the water working the edge of the boat as you watch your buddy, son, daughter, wife or husband present a fly to a Brown Trout that is nearly invisible under the reflection of the crystal water. It’s truly the small things that we try to bring to our clients attention that makes them forget about the hustle and stress of everyday life. You will come to realize how a well presented fly and a rising trout can make everything else slip away.
Our goal is to set ourselves apart and be known in the industry for hard working guides who love to throw dry flies. We chase down hatches, do longer days, put in more miles and don’t get caught up in what time we are supposed to be at the ramp. If a hatch starts at 4:00, then we’ll be there waiting. That’s because our enthusiasm and love is to see trout eat dry flies and our clients catch fish in the most rewarding way. We have a crew of guides that have been guiding anywhere from 3 years to 20 years and love the lifestyle they have chosen. The crew simply loves to fish; they have water running in their veins and it shows when they are behind the oars.
Steve Schmidt and Emmett Heath started Western Rivers Flyfishers in 1986, and have been a huge part of the Green River ever since. These two men are responsible for Western Rivers Flyfishers Guides’ ethic and old school approach on how a guide should conduct themselves and what makes a great experience for our Fly fishers. Their passion and love for fishing and the Green River has rubbed off on us and we take a like-minded approach to how we do our jobs.
Terms & Conditions
We understand that plans can change, and our cancellation policy is not intended to create an added hardship for our guests. As a small, seasonal business, many of our reservations are made well in advance, and once dates are reserved, we often turn away other guests hoping to book those same dates. Because of this, cancellations – especially those made close to the trip, can have a significant impact on our staff, guides, and overall operation.
A 50% deposit is required within 5 days of booking to secure your reservation. No reservations for lodging or guided trips are guaranteed until the deposit is received. The remaining balance is due in full no later than 30 days prior to your scheduled arrival. Deposits and final payments are non-refundable.
By submitting payment, you acknowledge and accept the reservation terms, including our policies regarding deposits, cancellations, refunds, and guest responsibility. We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to help protect your trip investment in the event of illness, travel delays, emergencies, or other unexpected circumstances.
If you do need to cancel, we will make a reasonable effort to rebook your cancelled dates to another client. If we can do so, we will refund the amount recovered, less any applicable credit card or payment processing fees. If we are unable to rebook the reservation, all payments will remain non-refundable.
We appreciate your understanding and your support of our small seasonal business.
Cancellation and payment policies are subject to change.
