Gunnison River Fly Fishing and River Rafting

The Largest Gunnison Fishing Outfitter


Gunnison River Expeditions in Colorado was established in 1985 and is recognized as the largest, most experienced Gunnison River fly fishing outfitter. We specialize in wilderness float fishing, walk/wade trips and Class III-IV white water rafting experiences. Our fly fishing guides are some of the most experienced in the state and cater to all levels or experience.

We offer guided float fishing and white water rafting trips through the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. This stretch of Gold Medal water is famous for world class rainbow and brown trout fishing, abundant insect hatches and magnificent scenery. Wildlife, including big horn sheep, mule deer, river otter, peregrine falcon and eagles, add to your enjoyment as you travel through this billion year old canyon. Don't miss this truly unforgettable experience.
