The outfitter offers day and overnight trips on the Lower Deschutes for summer run steelhead (September–November) and winter steelhead trips throughout Oregon (January–April). On the Crooked River, they run walk-and-wade trips for wild trout, described as their best option for beginning anglers.

River Borne Outfitters runs group and private fly fishing classes year-round, including a 2.5-hour "Beginning Fly Fishing 101" classroom session and a full-day "Beginning Fly Fishing, Deschutes River" class combining instruction with an afternoon guided trip. Equipment rentals (fly rods, waders, boots) and syllabus materials are included. The operation is based at the Deschutes River Fly Shop & Camp, acquired in 2015, which provides onsite lodging, cabin rentals, camping, and a deli. River Borne Outfitters holds a Special Recreation Permit from the BLM for the Deschutes and Crooked Rivers and is registered with the Oregon Marine Board.
