Experience Fishing at its Finest in Virginia & West Virginia!
Join our experienced guides for half day, full day, & overnight fishing trips on private and public waters in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.
We also offer the East Coast’s only Western-style, backcountry fishing expedition in the beautiful Monongahela National Forest of West Virginia.
Day Trips
We have unrivaled private access to the trophy trout waters of Beaver Creek, located just outside of Harrisonburg, VA. Beaver Creek is considered the best fishery in the state for large rainbow ands brook trout and we have exclusive rights to nearly one mile of private water.
We also fish secluded public waters throughout the Shenandoah Valley, to include Mossy Creek, Spring Creek, the North River (Delayed Harvest), the Dry River, Ramsey's Draft, the Jackson River, the Shenandoah River, and various waters in the Shenandoah National Park. In these streams, you will find plentiful native and stocked fish, to include rainbow trout, brown trout, brook trout, and smallmouth bass.
Whether you are a novice or an experienced angler, our guides will provide support in your quest for trophy fish.
Backcountry Expeditions
Cool Water Outfitters is excited to offer the first Western-style, backcountry fishing and horseback riding expedition in the Eastern U.S. in over 30 years! We have exclusive access to pristine backcountry waters on Shavers Fork of the Cheat River in West Virginia’s Monongahela National Forest (access limited to hike-in and horseback only). Our season starts in early spring when the fishing for big brookies and rainbows is hot, and runs through June when the dry fly fishing is at its peak.
We also offer overnight, guided fishing trips on Beaver Creek, a world-class stream located near Harrisonburg, VA, that produces unparalleled numbers of trophy trout.
