Soda Butte and Slough Creek Fly Fishing
We offer two distinct walk-wade trips on creeks of Yellowstone National Park: Slough Creek and Soda Butte Creek.
Slough Creek, a classic meadow stream, meanders through grassy valleys, offers ample opportunities to sight-cast to rising trout.
Soda Butte Creek tumbles through a rugged canyon, then opens into a beautiful valley. It’s pocket water, wide open riffles hold a healthy population of cutthroat trout.
Book a full-day wade fish in one of these two creeks, both on the north end of Yellowstone National Park.
Choose from a full-day or half-day trip with a group size of up to 12 anglers.
