We feature a wide variety of floating services on the beautiful Upper Meramec River. This stretch of the Meramec is among the top three rivers in Missouri for smallmouth and largemouth bass fishing. We offer floats from 4 to 21 miles through a trophy smallmouth  and floats from 4 to 14 miles through 9 miles of trophy trout waters which are located just below Meramec Spring Park. Catfish, goggle eye, crappie, bluegill and many species of non-game fish are abundant.

You won't be carrying your canoe, raft or kayak over shallows here on the spring fed upper Meramec River. Check out the river conditions and weather links at the bottom of the page for more information.
