Guided Fishing Float Tube Trip

Bishop, California

Trip locations can vary from Lone Pine to the Nevada border, just north of Bridgepoint. Please let me know where you are located and we can do our best to accommodate. Please note: Start and end times may vary depending on time of year, water levels, and guide. Your guide will contact you before the trip to confirm details. These trips are ideal for the fly-fishing angler wanting to explore still waters of the Sierra. A float tube is an intimate way to fish still waters allowing the fly-fisher to get up close and personal with the fish and the insects. Dry fly, nymphing and streamer fishing techniques are all excellent ways of fly fishing from a float tube. Still waters produce the biggest fish of the season. I offer full- and half-day trips. Clients must provide their own float tubes, waders and fins. Includes: Rod and reel, terminal tackle, all flies on trip, lunch on full day trips and water Not included: Valid California fishing license which can be purchased at www.wildlife.ca.gov/Licensing/Online-Sales, transportation, waders, float tubes, fins, rain gear and access fees Gratuities not included, but always appreciated!
