Meet Your Fly Fishing Guides
Trusted, tenured, and respected with decades of guiding experience, Stoney Creek Guides are eager to share their passion for fly fishing and the outdoors
The Upper North Platte River
A designated Wild and Scenic River, the Upper North Platte flows through broad valleys, cottonwood bottoms, and pristine high-desert country. This is where long, smooth drifts meet hungry browns and rainbows, and where every bend in the river holds new opportunity. With miles of productive runs and breathtaking scenery, it’s no surprise that the Upper North Platte is considered one of the finest drift-boat fisheries in the West.
The Encampment River
For anglers craving something more intimate and technical, the Encampment River delivers. This fast, spirited mountain stream demands precise casts, quick reactions, and a willingness to embrace its rugged beauty. From pocket water to steep drops and dry fly hatches that appear out of nowhere, the Encampment challenges and rewards in equal measure. It is a guide’s river—one we know inside and out.
Few places in the fly fishing world are spoken of with as much reverence as the Miracle Mile. This short but mighty tailwater is home to some of Wyoming’s largest and strongest trout, fueled by cold, nutrient-rich water and year-round flows. Conditions can change quickly, but that’s part of the magic. When the Mile turns on, it’s nothing short of unforgettable—powerful fish, rugged canyon views, and the sense that anything can happen on the next cast.

The Stoney Creek Experience
At Stoney Creek, we believe a great guided trip is built on more than catching fish—though you’ll certainly do that. It’s about creating a day that feels authentic, relaxed, and perfectly suited to you.
Our guides are seasoned professionals who grew up on these rivers, learned their subtleties over decades, and genuinely love sharing their knowledge. Whether you’re a beginner seeking patient instruction or a veteran angler looking to refine technical skills, we tailor each outing to your goals, pace, and experience level.
Expect clear communication, expert river reading, top-quality gear, and an easygoing atmosphere that allows you to immerse yourself in the flow of the day. We want you to step off the water with a deeper appreciation for the landscape, the fish, and the sport itself.
