Drift Boat
Our 16' Superbly Stealth Craft Drift Boat is considered to be the Cadillac of all the drift boats. Plenty of room for 2 anglers but can accommodate a third one as well, safe and comfortable clover casting braces and the stability of our boat is unmatched to any of the competitors. We don't just make sure you are safe and comfortable in our boats but we make sure you look cool while fishing from our boats.
Power Drifter
The Beaty of power drifter is that you have the option to run a productive section of the river endless times with the help of the jet motor and you can also drift down the river like you would in a drift boat. The high position of the casting platform helps with sighting trout or its also amazing for pike fishing.

Fishing has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Thanks to my dad, a dedicated angler himself, I inherited a deep love for the sport. Although I took a break during my college years and time in the Canadian Army, my passion was reignited the moment I returned to the stunning Rocky Mountain glacial rivers. The sheer beauty of these waters and the magnificent fish that inhabit them pulled me right back in.
Fly fishing, in particular, has become a lifelong pursuit. The more I learn about fish behavior, water currents, insect life, and the skill of tying flies and rowing boats, the more I realize that this journey is endless. It's this ongoing adventure and the joy of spending time with loved ones on the river that inspired me to create RiverPeople Guides.
