Harmel's Taylor River Habitat was designed and constructed by Bob Rosette, world renowned for his lifelong work to save America's rivers and fisheries. Due to Harmel's investment in the Taylor River ecosystem, the habitat supports 6 - 10 times the fish population, compared with unimproved stretches of the river. Working with the US Corps of Engineers, Harmel's designed fish dams and dead falls. Call for a VHS copy of "The Riverwalk" by Rosette for $15.
Then the experts strategically placed boulders and created resting pools. All these "improvements" actually have helped to restore the natural habitat to its historically productive levels. All the wildlife at Harmel's have enjoyed a comeback. The ripple effect caused by the restoration of the habitat benefits all of the apline animals and plants.
The bottom line is that Harmel's Ranch Resort on the Taylor River offers perhaps America's finest fly fishing at affordable rates. This is not "just" a fish camp, all the amenities are here for your world class vacation.
