Grande Ronde
Trout FISHING

Grande Ronde trout fishing happens in June. This is a 3- or 4-day deluxe camping trip fly fishing for Rainbow trout. It’s a 50-mile float that starts in Minim, Oregon, about 30 miles from La Grande, and ends in Troy, Oregon, about 8 miles from the Oregon Washington border. Our trip starts in the mountains, in the small town of Minim, at the confluence of the Minim and Wallowa Rivers. The Grande Ronde is a lovely free-flowing river that feeds into the Snake River after making its way through a deep canyon.

The canyon is densely forested with fir and ponderosa pines, which give way to huge grassy meadows and level beaches, which serve as our camp location. At 9:00 a.m., we launch our drift boats and prepare our rods for a day of fishing on the river. As we drift down the river, your guide will steady the boat while you cast into the riffles and rocky shorelines where the trout lurk.
