Trout Lie | Fly Fishing Reports From The Wild

Why Go Float Boating?

Float boating is a common activity on lazy, slow flowing rivers. It allows people to drift down the stream, taking in the scenery, and relaxing. When combined with fly fishing, it allows you to cover more areas of a river, which increases your chance of success. You are not stuck on a bank with only the fish that are in that area to catch. Instead, you are drifting past numerous fish and fish holes.

What Type of Boat Do You Need?

When float boating, you generally want to use a canoe, kayak, or river raft. These boats are light enough to flow downstream and then carry back to your starting point if you need to. They are also quiet on the water, can be paddled with ease, and sit on the water instead of deep like a motor boat. The purpose of a float trip is to cause as little disturbance as possible while covering the most amount of river.
