As one of Nebraska's biggest cities, Omaha has its share of urban sprawl, but spend a little time in town and find museums, pleasant parks, plenty of places to tuck into for an Omaha steak and somewhat unexpectedly, an indoor rainforest.
The State of Wyoming considers this section of river to be important on a statewide basis as a trout fishery, this designation is limited to about 6% of all the waters in Wyoming. There are numerous other stream fisheries nearby which produce good fishing (some examples are: Horse Creek, Jakey's Fork, East Fork of the Wind River). For more information, contact either of the 2 offices listed below. State wide creel limits apply and all legal methods of fishing are allowed.
