Idaho Falls, ID
Hyde Outfitters in Idaho Falls, Idaho has built a strong reputation guiding the South Fork of the Snake River — one of the premier cutthroat trout float fisheries in the American West — from their base in the valley below Swan Valley Canyon. The South Fork flows through a dramatic canyon carved in the high desert east of Idaho Falls, and the canyon section's summer float is one of the defining fly fishing experiences in the Rocky Mountain region: native Snake River fine-spotted cutthroats rising aggressively to large dry flies in water of startling clarity, with golden canyon walls rising above both banks and ospreys diving alongside the drift boat. Hyde Outfitters' guides have rowed this section hundreds of times and know every productive channel, back eddy, and foam line that concentrates feeding fish. The shop also covers the lower South Fork sections with different character — braided channels, side channels, and spring creeks — that provide variety for repeat visitors who want to explore the river beyond the famous canyon float.
