Experience the Best Backcountry Fishing Trip in Idaho
Experience the ultimate backcountry fishing adventure in Idaho! Our exclusive camp on Kelly Creek offers access to 15 miles of pristine waters, abundant trout, and breathtaking scenery. Escape reality, fish all day, and relax under the stars by the campfire.
Charter Overview
Our backcountry fishing trip offers a truly unique experience that reconnects you with the essence of fly fishing. Located in Idaho, Kelly Creek is a renowned Blue Ribbon Trout River, and our camp is situated at the upper end of the mountain drainage for exceptional access. With exclusive rights to guide you on the upper 15 miles of the creek, you'll have endless opportunities for walking and wading. The river is primarily inhabited by Westslope Cutthroat Trout, making it a dry-fly fisherman's paradise. Prepare for abundant fish, including big native Cutthroats, and the chance to catch the elusive Bull Trout.
Our fishing camp provides an ideal escape from reality, whether you're joining us for a week or a long weekend. Your adventure begins with a 15-mile horseback ride into camp. Our canvas tents offer privacy, and you'll have access to a communal cook tent, a hot shower tent, and a latrine tent for your convenience. Fish the South Fork of Kelly Creek right from camp, explore the banks on foot, or ride along the creek to discover the best fishing spots. Throughout the day, you'll be accompanied by experienced guides who will assist you with netting fish, selecting the right flies, and taking care of the horses. A satisfying shore lunch is included, and after a rewarding day of fishing, return to camp to indulge in a freshly cooked meal while enjoying the starry sky and the warmth of a campfire.
