Fly Fishing/Rafting Trips while in YNP

My boyfriend and I will be visiting YNP from June 2-8th and are interested in trying fly fishing and perhaps going on a rafting trip. Does anyone know of any good companies offering these opportunities? We are camping at Bridge Bay for 3 nights, then staying at a hotel in West Yellowstone for another 3 nights, so we can be quite flexible as far as where the activities take place.





Thanks!





PS. Does anyone have the website listing West Yellowstone hotel/motel accomodations? I thought I had seen the link in a previous post but now cannot seem to find it!

I%26#39;ll tackle the fishing question :-)



Here%26#39;s a link for a number of guide services based in West Yellowstone: www.westyellowstonechamber.com/play/fishing/



The guides will usually take you out in drift boats and generally will fish either the Yellowstone or the Madison River - but contact the companies for specifics.



If you want to drive a little further, there are several companies in Ennis also: Madison River Fishing Co. and the Tackle Shop both have very experienced guides and offer both full and half-day trips.



If you will be going to Jackson Hole, there are several good rafting companies based there that take you on the Snake River: Barker-Ewing and Dave Hansen both do a good job, as does Mad River. Gardiner also offers raft trips, but I%26#39;m not familiar with the companies there.



Hopefully someone else will add the hotel link for you.



Good Luck!!
