North Gate Canyon

Ahhh.....the pristine waters of the North Gate Canyon.

Earlier in the season, before the rampant run-off took over for the months of June and now part of July, the cold waters of the canyon were well worth floating and spending a day of fishing. Most years the canyon is best to fish towards the end of May and first parts of June, falling in line with the Salmon fly hatch. 2011 has been a year of tremendous snow pack all over the state of Wyoming, some places exceeding 200% of normal snow pack. Making the Upper North Platte River a destination to wait for until the water starts calming down.

What does this mean for fishing the North Gate Canyon? A later season. For 2011, August will be the time to be out fishing the canyon.

So, a taste of the waters....

Walleye Fishing

As runoff begins to take control of rivers around the state of Wyoming, making them muddy and generally hard to fish, Walleye fishing takes off in Seminole, Grayrocks, and Glendo.

A recent trip to Glendo verifies this statement.

Walleye fishing is at its best in June and July when the days do not reach high summer temperatures. And why not spend a day trolling a lake for tasty Walleye?

Please give us a call or e-mail for any information. We would love to take you out!

Ten years and still going...

Two Dogs Guide Service is celebrating its tenth year in opperation. 10 years!

A little story on how we began:

Ray was a college student in Casper, WY working hard, studying hard, and fly fishing even harder. His passion for being on the water led to many days of floating his boat down the North Platte River. Accompanied by his dog Bruin, Ray worked on his art and skill as a fly fisherman; since he had grown of fishing, mastering his craft was where he put his energy. Somewhere down the line he was asked to guide- because he knew the water and area well, and enjoyed teaching others about his passion for fly fishing and being in the outdoors. Once he realized guiding might be something he would like to continue doing in life- not making money, but truly enjoying his days- he deceided to open his own business: Two Dogs Guide Service.

By now Ray was finishing up his college years in Laramie, Wyoming and working at the West Laramie Fly Store- basing his business there. He fell in love with the Upper North Platte and began taking most of his trips down the secluded section of the river. When he takes people there, they experience great fishing and scenic waterways, few people and a unique location.

Ten years later, he's still fishing, guiding, and loving the experience...
