More information on the 2012 Burbot Bash in January should be coming soon.  The predatory Burbot fish has been illegally introduced, hurting all the sport fishing. That is why, for one week, fisherman can come catch as many as possible. Flaming Gorge resort has teamed up for the event with a lodging special, so be sure to book now.

Another great way to experience the beautiful Flaming Gorge is by taking a nice canoe or kayak trip, or go scuba diving. If you want to paddle between narrow 1000-foot deep canyons or wide-open areas with beautiful scenery, then this is the place for you. We rent one or two person kayaks that make floating on the Flaming Gorge Reservoir or down the Green River exciting! Flaming Gorge Reservoir is also a wonderful place to discover the rock ledges by scuba diving.
