Tuolumne Basecamp Fly Fishing Adventures

Enjoy our 2 day/1 night or 3 day/2 night Basecamp Adventure! Great for beginner, intermediate and advanced anglers that are looking to catch brown and rainbow in the rugged and remote backcountry solitude of the Tuolumne River!

Details

Meet your fly fishing guide, Bryant Burnette, after breakfast around 8 AM at a convenient prearranged meet up location to pack gear and talk safety. We’ll load up and immediately head to our basecamp on a 5 mile 4WD adventure into the Tuolumne River Canyon.

Once at our basecamp we’ll enjoy a series of hike and wade adventures along the Tuolumne River focusing our skills and attention on our incredible lake run rainbows. Depending on your experience level, we can learn the basics of fly fishing including beginner casting, fly selection, reading water and basic knot tying. As well as Czech Nymphing, dry fly, streaming and wet fly techniques. For experienced anglers, your guide will help you sharpen your skills while sharing the best fly fishing locations along the Tuolumne River!

Our Tuolumne Basecamp meals are almost as good as the fishing beginning with hearty mountain breakfasts of eggs, bacon pancakes and other camp favorites. Our made to order hiker’s lunches are eaten on the go, and out campfire cookouts are the perfect end of the day with ribeyes, shrimp tacos, and other out of this world camp creations!
