Far from the Crowds, Closer to the Fish
If you're searching for something beyond the typical guided trip — something more wild, more remote, and more unforgettable — then a Wyoming wilderness fishing trip might be exactly what you need.
At Graylight Outfitters, we lead anglers deep into the Teton Wilderness, one of the most untouched places in the lower 48. Here’s what you can expect on a true backcountry fly fishing experience.
🐴 1. Horseback Access Into the Wild
These aren’t drive-up trips. To reach the headwaters of the Yellowstone River or fish Atlantic Creek, you’ll travel on horseback — just like the old-timers did.
Fully guided pack-in travel
All gear and food transported by pack horses
Trails that wind through meadows, ridgelines, and remote canyons
By the time you arrive at camp, you’ll know you’ve entered a different world — far from roads, cell towers, and crowds.
🎣 2. Pristine Water, Native Fish, and No Pressure
Once you’re in the wilderness, you’ll have rivers and creeks nearly to yourself. Our trips target wild, native Yellowstone cutthroat trout — a species that thrives in these high-mountain headwaters.
Expect:
Crystal-clear waters
Dry fly action all day long
Big, hungry fish that rarely see pressure
We often fish waters that haven’t seen another angler in weeks — or longer.
🍳 3. Campfire Meals and Classic Canvas Tents
At the end of the day, you’ll return to a fully outfitted camp with:
Comfortable wall tents and cots
Hearty, home-cooked meals around the fire
Hot coffee at sunrise and stories under the stars
This is more than a fishing trip — it’s a taste of classic Western outfitting and wilderness living.
🥾 4. Guides Who Know the Land and the Fish
Our Wyoming guides aren’t just here to tie on flies. They’re horse wranglers, backcountry cooks, weather watchers, and fish whisperers.
We’ve been guiding in this region for years, our experienced and personable guides know:
When the cutthroats are moving
Which hatches are on
Where the fish hold under summer sun or runoff conditions
Whether you’re a seasoned fly angler or bringing kids for the first time, we tailor the trip to your experience level.
📅 5. June–August: Prime Season for Wilderness Trips
Our fishing season runs from early June to late August. Each trip is 4–5 days in the backcountry, with custom private group options available.
Available dates fill quickly, especially for the peak hatch in mid to late June.
👨👩👧👦 Bonus: Family-Friendly Options Available
Yes, we guide families, too. If you’ve got kids 10+ who are comfortable riding and hiking, a wilderness trip can be an unforgettable shared adventure.
We also offer private trips for groups of 4+, customized to your pace, comfort level, and interests.
