Adventure Tips

Timing your trip

Plan your fishing trip during early morning or late afternoon when trout are most active.

Wear polarized sunglasses

Polarized lenses reduce glare and help spot fish beneath the water’s surface.

Dress in layers

Mountain weather can change fast; layering keeps you comfortable throughout your trip.

Handle fish with care

Use wet hands or a net to minimize stress on the fish and support catch-and-release.
