Green River and New Fork Rivers
Originating in the rugged Wind River Range, the Green River and New Fork Rivers are two of Wyoming’s most scenic and productive freestone rivers. Known for their winding bends, undercut banks, gravel bottoms, and deep pools, these rivers offer a truly unique fly fishing float trip experience through high-desert sagebrush flats with the towering Winds as your backdrop.
Although smaller in size than some western rivers, the Green and New Fork consistently produce some of the largest brown and rainbow trout in the Rocky Mountain West, along with native cutthroat trout. These waters are ideal for intermediate to advanced anglers seeking a more adventurous and remote fishing experience.
The Green River and New Fork River often run clear earlier in the season than the Snake River, making them a top spring fly fishing option for anglers eager to hit the water. Depending on conditions, you’ll find excellent opportunities for dry fly fishing, nymphing, and streamer fishing throughout the season.
These rivers flow through a mix of National Forest, BLM land, and private ranches. Due to Wyoming’s private land access laws, most fly fishing on the Green and New Fork is done from a drift boat, providing access to hard-to-reach and highly productive water.
If you're looking to catch trophy trout in a breathtaking, less-traveled setting, a guided float trip on the Green or New Fork Rivers is an unforgettable addition to your Jackson Hole fly fishing adventure.
