Fly Fishing the Youghiogheny:
Kayak & Bike Fishing
The Youghiogheny River offers a classic big river fishing experience. Our skilled boatmen use oar rigs to maneuver you into those hard to cast places: that hidden hole or around that pesky branch. Their Fly Fishing expertise will guide you through the day, teaching you casting techniques or perfecting your existing skills and sharing their knowledge on local hatches. We offer day long fishing trips, accessing the river either by rail trail on a bike or floating in a kayak fishing specific boat.
The Middle Yough
This portion of the river starts at the tailrace/outflow of the Yough Lake. This frequently stocked area makes for a superb start to the day. The next nine miles are a breathtaking assortment of mixed riffles, pools, rolling flats and pocket water galore. Cold water releases from Yough Lake Dam create a true tail water with good trout temperature year round, from Confluence to well below Ohiopyle.
Kayak Fishing
It's all the rage! You get to kayak and fish all in the same day. Our stable fishing kayaks allow you to cast from the boat and even stand if you'd like. Trips are available on the Middle Yough in Ohiopyle PA and in Maryland as well.
Bike Fishing
The Great Allegheny Passage (aka - rail trail) runs along much of the Youghiogheny, Casselman and N. Branch Rivers. Our guides will lead you by bike from one access sport to the next, efficiently covering 8-10 miles of water in a day.
