Rugged Granite Mountains

The Miracle Mile is a taiwater associated with a series of reservoirs in central Wyoming. As you float the Mile, which is about 50 miles southwest of Casper, you will enjoy 360 degree views of rugged, granite mountains and clean Wyoming air. The Mile is known for its unmatched scenery, remote setting, and of course the opportunity to chase trophy trout.

Rainbow, Browns, & Cutthroat Trout

The Miracle Mile earned its appellation due to the numbers of trout that local fishermen are in the habit of pulling from her waters. The fish population at the Mile is about a 50/50 split of Rainbows to Browns, and it is worth noting that many trophy trout have been caught in these tailwaters.

The mile draws anglers from far and wide to come fish its waters. This is partially due to the higher than average trout size and partially due to the views that the Mile offers. The stretch of water also tends to have a little more technical fishing. Due to this, if anglers have not done much fly fishing, we typically suggest fishing one day on the Reef before heading out to the Mile. This allows anglers to get their casting and landing skills in order before chasing these coveted trout. The Mile will test your skills as an angler, but the opportunity to add a PR trout under your belt is what keeps anglers coming back time after time.

Float & Walk Wade Fishing Trips

We offer float and walk wade trips on the Mile. Our guides also offer superior knowledge and camping spots and public access points. This is also a great section of water for anglers that enjoy throwing a switch or spey rod for trout.

 

Pathfinder National Wildlife Refuge

The “Mile” is actually about five and half miles of incredible fishing as the North Platte flows into the Pathfinder National Wildlife Refuge. Although it is a tailwater, it fishes more like a freestone river. Many anglers draw a comparison to the Madison River when thinking of the Mile. We offer float and walk wade trips on the Mile, great camping opportunities, and good access.

My family and I have been customers of Crazy Rainbow for years. It would take us some time to try and calculate how many fish we have caught with them over the years.

BEYOND EXPECTATIONS! I spent a week in July fishing with Ugly Bug guides Justin, Troy, and Addie (also at the shop) on the North Platte catching rainbows, cutthroats, and browns. I have fly fished most of my adult years, and this was by far the best trip of my life.

Destination Travels

Crazy Rainbow Fishing Around The World

Come travel the world with Crazy Rainbow Fly Fishing Guides. We travel to exotic places around the world for exciting fishing trips. Schedule early Crazy Rainbow Destination Travels are limited  opportunities. Each trip is only offered once per year to every other year.


Magic Waters Patagonia

Travel the Magic Waters Patagonia, our main and first fly fishing operation in Patagonia, we are always looking for new adventures, and always looking to find new waters for our friends and clients. For long time we were looking at Blanco River. We were wondering about the fishing and mainly about how to set up an operation in this pristine and untouched 30 miles of river. So, between Eduardo Barrueto and Andi Manstein we decided to go forward and start setting up this fantastic dream, that we called The River of Dreams.

Grand Slam Fishing Lodge

Travel to the Grand Slam Fishing Lodge is like an exclusive resort that happens to be run by fishermen, for fishermen (and their non-fishing companions). Situated on a narrow, palm tree-studded strip of sand, the lodge faces the Caribbean on one side with the lagoon lapping on the other side. So you get great sea views plus easy access to Ascension Bay with our lagoon dock.
AGUA NEGRA CAMP, BOLIVIA
Destination Travels With Fishing Outfitters

Agua Negra Camp

Travel to the Agua Negra Camp is a remote yet luxurious tent camp/lodge perched on a bluff overlooking the Secure River. Roughly 100 yards away is the small native village of Agua Negra, which makes this camp by far the most culturally rich of the Tsimane experiences. Here anglers will enjoy very comfortable double occupancy safari tents with attached baths as well as the comfort of the main lodge building where drinks and meals are served. The fishing will be done on the main Secure as well as on the Agua Negra River. The Agua Negra is smaller and offers not only big dorado but the region’s most forgiving terrain as well as the greatest diversity of species including large pacu, pira pita and the elusive striped catfish known as surubi.
