& Release Fly Fishing at Big Valley Trophy Lakes.
Initial visit includes full-day guide: $200/rod/day for 1-2 people; $185/rod/day for 3 or more;
follow up access $65/rod/day.
- Catch & Release Fly Fishing at
Main Ranch River and Ponds: B&B guests check
in after 3 PM, check out before 11 AM. A fishing
“day” consists of a morning, afternoon
and evening over any one or two-day period, so you
can start in the afternoon, fish through the evening
and continue the next morning until noon, and it
only counts as one day. Cost is $15 per person/per hour or
$65 per person/per day.
- Catch & Keep bait fishing and
spin casting are allowed for B&B guests only
in the main ranch ponds by special arrangement through
the office. You pay $6.00 for each fish
you catch, and no throw-backs are allowed. You clean
and package your own fish for take-home, or if you
don’t want to keep them, you may take them
to the Ranch kitchen. When fishing without a ranch
attendant, children 12 and under must be accompanied
at all times by an adult.
