We are grateful to be nestled in one of the most productive trout fisheries in the world...
...and would like to invite you to see for yourself.
Our History
Gaston's White River Resort began 67 years ago when Al Gaston, Jim Gaston's father, purchased 20 acres of White River frontage with six small cottages and six boats...the year was 1958.
Present day, Jim’s grandson - Clint Gaston - will carry on the family legacy for many years to come. The resort now covers over 400 acres, and has 79 cottages ranging in size from two double beds to ten private bedrooms. The airstrip has grown from 1,800 feet to 3,200 feet. The six boats are now over 70, and with a state of the art dock to hold them all. The years have brought an award winning restaurant, private club, gift shop, tennis court, playground, game room, duck pond, three nature trails, swimming pool, conference lodge, and fly fishing school.

Michael told me he has Fly Fished Taneycomo a bit and always caught a bunch of rainbows but never a Brown. I told him I would work hard to help him scratch that off his bucket list.
Congratulations Michael Kolstad on your Trophy Brown!
Come see us down at Gaston's White River Resort

Frequently Asked Questions
The fishing is always good here. The White River stays the same temperature year-round and therefore the trout are always active. You should always be able to catch your limit. Also note that fly fishing is not the only way to fish here; over 85% of everyone that fishes here is spin fishing. You can produce excellent results fishing either way; the main thing is to have fun.
