Snake River Angler & Scenic Float Trips

Booked a full day fishing trip over the phone as we were traveling from out of state. Booking was easy process. Guide texted day before with details of trip. We were excited for this as we’ve fly fished on other vacations and came to enjoy it. Unfortunately our guide Jon, while very knowledgeable and skilled, he was less than personable. Spent a lot of time explaining technique and safety but never asked what experience we would like to have. His instruction came across as abrupt and impatient. He seemed to have arrogant attitude and unfortunately made the whole experience less enjoyable. Yes we did catch fish. Oh and after having to purchase $38 worth of flies at the shop, he forget to bring them.

Took a trip with Jon. Front of the boat Angler had fly fished once before. After we launched the boat, Jon gave instructions on proper casting, mending , setting the hook and safety in the boat and on the river. He was quick to try and correct mistakes because his ultimate goal was to keep us safe and catch fish. He did just that. We had a 40 plus fish day with the 2nd time angler catching half. We raised a ton of fish too. Great shop staff. Young but very experienced guide that was just as excited when you caught a fish as if he had caught it himself. Highly recommend Snake River Angler and Jon.

Did a guided fly tour April 2022 and our guide, Grant, was awesome. Caught a bunch of fish including a few cutthroat trout, a brown trout and a bunch of whitefish and had a blast doing it. Grant was super knowledgeable about the area (snake river) and a whole lot else. Highly recommend this company and Grant.

Great shop prices were great, especially for flies. Bought some very nice mouse flies and some game changers. Great selection of everything for tying. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly, willing to help answer questions, and dig thru stock in the basement to get me the flies i wanted.

Wanted to rent spin gear for a day and they totally hooked me up. I rented a reel and they helped me buy the right lures. Also told me good spin fishing spots. I went to Jackson Lake dam, river side, north bank, and the fish were literally jumping out of the water. Caught over 15 fish and literally every other cast got at least a bite. I was doing 100% release so I ended up breaking off 2 of the 3 hooks on my lure to do less damage to the fish. For sure ping these guys to rent gear . They are great!
