What is a Hosted Destination Fly Fishing Trip?

Unlike a travel agent, as a host, we have already scrutinized the alternatives, experienced the lodge, fished its waters and are well versed in the experience. It is not the job of the host to be your guide (leave that to the local pros), but a trusted voice and travel liaison for our past, current and future guests. We help with the whole process; from recommendations and advise with travel plans, to getting you properly outfitted with the appropriate Fly Fishing Gear for your destination. We help ensure your fly fishing destination experience will be seamless experience and a huge success.

RIGS is committed to exploring the world’s top rated fly fishing destinations.

Countless years of exploration and passion are the results of our refined offerings – RIGS partners with only premium Fly Fishing Travel Companies like Tailwaters Travels to insure we don’t “recreate the wheel”, but offer our guests Top Rated, industry renowned destinations with quality guides & amenities.
