North Fork Anglers in Cody, Wyoming occupies a particularly compelling position in the Western fly fishing landscape — at the junction of the North Fork of the Shoshone River and the gateway corridor to Yellowstone's east entrance. The North Fork is a rugged, beautiful piece of water that holds exceptional wild trout in a dramatic canyon setting, with volcanic rock formations and dense timber framing a river that runs cold from Yellowstone's high plateau. The shop has served as the primary outfitter for this stretch of Wyoming since its founding, developing an expertise in the North Fork, the Shoshone River below Buffalo Bill Reservoir, and the many tributary streams and backcountry lakes of the Shoshone National Forest.
North Fork Anglers runs float and wading trips on the North and South Forks of the Shoshone, the main Shoshone River, and operates shuttle and logistics for anglers heading into Yellowstone via the east entrance. The shop floor is stocked with a serious selection of fly fishing gear, apparel, and accessories alongside a fly bin calibrated to the specific patterns and sizes that work in Wyoming's high-altitude, freestone character waters. Staff members fish the North Fork and Yellowstone's interior waters extensively and offer detailed, current reports on conditions across the region. For anglers based in Cody or arriving via the east entrance to Yellowstone, North Fork Anglers is the essential first and last stop.

“North Fork Anglers is the best fly shop on this side of Yellowstone, bar none. The staff know the North Fork Shoshone intimately and gave me a precise breakdown of the river's sections, current conditions, and the exact fly patterns working during my late-July visit. Fished it the next morning and landed the largest brown trout I've ever caught in Wyoming. This shop is the real deal.”
“Booked a guided float on the Shoshone through North Fork Anglers and had a remarkable day. The canyon stretch is stunning and the guide's knowledge of the river was encyclopedic. We fished caddis in the morning, switched to hoppers after lunch, and never stopped catching fish. The shop itself is beautifully stocked with every brand that matters. Highly recommend.”
“Stopped in for a fishing report before my first time on the North Fork and left with a complete game plan. Everything the staff told me about the river proved accurate — flows, hatches, access points, the whole picture. They clearly spend serious time on the water and take pride in pointing anglers in the right direction. Outstanding shop.”
