Highlights of Dubois Wyoming Fishing
The Wind River drainage around Dubois offers some of Wyoming's most diverse trout fishing opportunities. From the main stem Wind River with its healthy population of rainbow and brown trout, to high-altitude lakes holding native cutthroat, the variety keeps every trip interesting. Spring brings excellent dry fly fishing as mayflies and caddis emerge, while summer opens access to backcountry waters via hiking trails. Fall fishing can be spectacular as trout feed heavily before winter, and the changing aspen leaves create stunning backdrops for your fishing photos.
Zack's approach focuses on reading water, understanding insect life, and adapting techniques to current conditions rather than relying on a single method. Whether you're a beginner learning to cast or an experienced angler wanting to explore new water, these trips are tailored to your skill level and interests.
Local Tips & Conditions
Dubois sits at 7,200 feet elevation, so weather can change quickly even in summer. Morning temperatures often start cool, warming significantly by afternoon, making layered clothing essential. The Wind River runs clear most of the season, but spring snowmelt and summer thunderstorms can affect clarity and flow rates. Zack monitors conditions daily and adjusts trip locations accordingly—sometimes that means switching from the main river to tributary creeks, or from streams to still water depending on what's fishing best.
Wading can be challenging due to slippery rocks and variable depths, so felt-soled boots or cleats are recommended. The high altitude means strong UV exposure, so sunscreen and polarized sunglasses aren't just comfort items—they're necessities. Most productive fishing happens during morning and evening hours when insect activity peaks, though overcast days can provide excellent all-day action.

ZT Angling Company provides all fishing equipment including rods, reels, flies, and terminal tackle suited to local conditions.

Bring your own lunch and drinks for full-day trips, plus appropriate clothing for changing mountain weather. Wyoming fishing license required—Zack can advise on purchasing options and regulations.
