Capt. Dan Flaming Gorge Fin Chasers offers exciting trips out on Flaming Gorge Reservoir in search of trophy Lake Trout and more. These waters have produced some real monsters in the past, and Captain Dan Bolton will take you to all his favorite fishing spots on the hunt for record-breakers.

There's more than just Lake Trout swimming around here, too. Rainbow Trout, Kokanee Salmon, and Smallmouth Bass are all on the menu, depending on when you show up. Because of this, you will be given quality tackle at a variety of test strengths, with the option to jig, troll, and bottom fish, and even fly fish if you let Capt. Dan know in advance.

You will be spending the day aboard a 24' Duckworth aluminum fishing boat. The vessel was built in 2017 and makes for a safe, comfortable place for up to four guests to spend the day. The boat is powered by a 300HP Mercury engine, so she's no slow coach. She also has a trolling motor to let you stalk silently through the water once you're in position.

You have the choice of morning and afternoon fishing trips with Captain Dan. You will be battling huge fish in one of the most stunning settings in the country. All rods, reels, tackle, bait, and lures are included. All you have to do is show up!

So what are you waiting for? Grab your fishing license, food, drinks, and camera, and get ready for a truly unique fishing adventure.

Better than I had hoped. Five of us limited out on salmon within 3 hours then we caught a monster laker before we pulled off the water. It was awesome.

I had booked Captain Dan for a first-time trip with my son and granddaughter, but wasn't able to get to Flaming Gorge myself. My son reported a spectacular experience, catching around 20 kokanee as well as some lakers. My granddaughter loved Captain Dan and can't wait to go back again. We may make this an annual affair, only with all 3 of us fishing.

This trip was a Christmas present from my girlfriend. Captain Dan put us on fish and gave us great memories! I have been on many guided fishing trips and this on was one of the best. Friendly knowledgeable Captain with a beautiful boat and high quality gear. Plan to hire him again in the fall when my sons come out to visit. Highly recommend!

Captin Dan was fun to go fishing with. He is super knowledgeable and we had a great time out on the water fishing with him. He did a great job on putting us over some great Salmon. We feel like we had a successful morning of fishing thanks to a great guide.

Although we didn’t walk away with a great big laker Dan effortlessly got us into some good size Kokanee and pups. Dan is personable and taught us the ropes to hopefully try to catch a big one on our own. Will be going back yearly!
