No Need to Rough it Fly Fishing

Expert Author Greg Garner

You have probably heard stories of people being flown in by helicopter to fish remote rivers or someone backpacking for hours to get to the perfect stream. Fly Fishing is the passion of many people but don't think you have to give up the fine amenities of every day living to enjoy it. Many of the best fishing streams are within a short drive of some of the finest lodges and resorts in America. You can spend the day fishing and then enjoy dinner or a drink by the fireplace at night.

Montana is one of the prime spots to catch big rainbow trout and the Gallatin River Lodge is right in the heart of the streams that produce the big yields. This place has several suites that include Jacuzzis which are a perfect place for the tired fisherman to relax after a long day chasing the rainbows. Your stay at the lodge includes a fishing guide who will make sure that you hit the best fishing spots. This lodge is geared to serve fishing enthusiasts and is located just a short distance from Yellowstone National Park.

If you want to try and catch trophy size rainbow trout another great lodge in a perfect location is the Alaska Rainbow Lodge in King Salmon Alaska. The guides at the lodge will fly you to the best spots for fishing which can be all be reached within a half hour from the lodge. The lodge includes a dining room and bar to provide an excellent spot to wind down and share your fish stories at the end of the day.

The Arkansas Ozarks are another region well known for trophy fish. About 60 miles from Little Rock you will find the Fly Fishing Lodge which specializes in upscale accommodations. It is perfect for a corporate retreat or a trip for fishing buddies and their wives. The fishing is outstanding but there is also golf in the region and miles of hiking trails to explore. The Ozark National Forest is just a short drive away. It covers over 1 million acres and includes the tallest mountain in the state, Mount Magazine.
