“Ron and Wes were awesome! Clean new boats at excellent prices. Thanks guys for the great boats and excellent service. Loved rowing the Clackacraft skiff. Will be back for sure. 🇺🇸”

“Ron was so kind and amazing to deal with. We rented a drift boat for an affordable rate. On our float, we realized we had made a mistake with our schedule and needed to be off of the water asap. Ron was accommodating and had his trailer ready for us at their take out spot a few hours earlier than expected. We are definitely going to reach out to Lone Tree again the next time we're in town because it was a top tier service!”

“Lone Tree Boat Rental has their outfit dialed in! Wes was very professional, informative, and accommodating. Best outfitter I've found in a long time and won't hesitate to book something soon again.
No need to worry about car shuttles and he got the boats cleaned out and ready for our floats the next day. Very pleased (and impressed) with the operation he has going on; he even let us come back in the evenings after our floats and wade fish his property (and that's when the "reel" fun began!). Wes dropped in and made sure we were good and even gave us some of his signature flies to try on the different sections we were fishing.
Outstanding job, Lone Tree - you blew my expectations out of the water; just like those monster trout when we were hooked up!”

“This was our 2nd season floating 3 days on the North Platte River catching large Brown, Rainbow and Cutbow trout. Our guide Wes Richner, having been raised on this river “knew this river like the back of his hand.” He has fished in all seasons, in all conditions and during different water levels and so knew where those big trout would hold and knew what fly they would bite. He was an exceptional, informative guide with all sorts of historical facts about the area.”

“Absolute top notch outfitter! Wes treated us all with respect and made sure we had what we needed to be successful on our trip. He was always available to answer questions and help in anyway.”

“Hands down the best guide and rental service on the North Platte. Wes and Ron run a first class operation with high quality boats and equipment. Most importantly just purely awesome people. Don’t think twice, 5/5 all day!”

“Our experience was awesome! Wes was awesome and super accommodating. Would highly recommend Lone Tree Drift Boat Rentals for anyone coming to the North Platte. We will absolutely use them again and be back!”

“Ron is absolutely the nicest boat rental person I’ve ever dealt with. He makes you feel like a family member. The equipment is kept in tip-top shape and is of excellent quality. Truly, the best drift boat experience I’ve ever had. Highly recommended!”

“We floated on very windy day, but Wes met us promptly and put our boat in river quickly. We didn’t have cash to buy new state license and he footed that bill for us (he’s a quick study and I'm sure has been set up for the issue w/out-of-state clients) Set us free to Grey Reef to have fun, but noted we could call him anywhere and he would pick us up. Wes is young, strong, locally knowledgeable and will offer you tips for fishing in any type weather/season. We will be back to fish with him later this year. He is the future of the guide/boat rental industry on the N Platte in Casper and we intend to fish with him again soon!! Call Wes, he is extremely professional and very fun to chat with regarding, “the Big Tug”!! Haha!”

“A must fish, fishing hole to visit! You will be treated like a pro! We have had an amazing time for the last 10 years every summer! Thanks Wes for always knowing what the kids and I need to catch the big ones!!”

“10/10! I have floated several times with Wes and he actually taught me how to fly fish! Because he literally grew up on this river, Wes is an incredible guide and is a wealth of knowledge! He knows the river, currants, the fish, what to throw, and where all the good holes are. He makes the float trips fun and energetic and works hard for his clients! Book your trip today! You will not be disappointed!!”
