Notes from the landowner

15 miles outside of Rawlins you will find a 1.5-mile stretch of the legendary North Platte River. Here you will find picturesque mountain views of Elk Mountain and incredible fishing. A legendary history of Native Americans, fur trappers, railroaders, and outlaws enlivens the legacy of this part of Wyoming. This area is a popular place for fishing, especially for trout. You will find yourself getting into Brown, Rainbow, and Cutthroat Trout on this pristine section of the River. The access varies from moderate to difficult on this property as there are some steeper banks and vegetation to get through. 4WD is recommended in the spring and if the area has had recent rains.

For properties listed as "Community Adventures" there is the possibility that a limited number of other anglers can be on the property at the same time. Just a heads up, some of our spots have other leases that might have anglers casting their lines too. So, hit 'request to book' and we'll make sure to confirm the availability before you pack your gear!
We think it's important to mentor the next generation of anglers. Youth between the ages of 13 and 17 are 50% off for all fishing and small game when you reserve on the Infinite Outdoors app. However, kids 13-17 will need to have an Infinite Outdoors Membership. Youth 12 and under are free and do not need a membership but must follow all property rules.
No, most of our property listings are available to Infinite Outdoors Members without a pass. If you plan on fishing on a regular basis talk to our support team and see if a pass might make sense.
Not all properties have signs, so be sure to check the property boundaries and information in the Infinite Outdoors app.
Access your adventure on the IO app before heading out the door, all the information and maps will be on the app so you don't need service to navigate your adventure. Also all property maps will download offline onto your app so you can always see where you are on the property, even without service.
We can't guarantee you'll catch fish every time—fishing always comes with a bit of unpredictability due to factors like weather and fish behavior. However, we do everything we can to boost your chances! We offer information on local fly shops so you can get the best tips and gear recommendations. As for the size of the fish, it really depends on where you're fishing. We aim to connect you with spots where you have a good shot at landing some great catches, but it's all part of the Do-It-Yourself fly fishing adventure!

If very large, very deep, and very slow moving rivers are your thing, then this is the place for you. I'm not skilled enough to fish this type of water effectively and got skunked in the 6+ hours I fished it. My 5WT setups felt like a toothpick on this water, I would consider bringing an 8WT with a full sink line (no joke) for some of the larger pools/runs, or even a small kayak/boat. This was the largest rarewaters property i've been on, its gorgeous, I camped at the right side site and it was right next to the water. Saw several herds of antelope and deer during my stay. Flows were at 200CFS and at times I couldn't tell which direction the river was flowing, it just stood still, too slow for me to have a good time, I'll try again when the flows pickup.

Water low and off color. Only had time to fish middle section for a few hours at mid-day. Unproductively fished hopper/droppers, nymphs, and streamers. Nice section of the North Platte; there may be better stretches of the ranch we did not see. Felt like we were at the wrong spot and the wrong time of day and year.
