Bozeman, Montana · Guided fly fishing
Guided float trips, walk-and-wade days, casting clinics, fly tying workshops and corporate retreat days — run out of Bozeman, Montana, and booked one date at a time.
Trips and guiding
Tell us who is coming and when you can travel. We match the water, the guide and the pace to your group, then put the date on the calendar.
A full day on the water from a drift boat, guided by an angler who knows the stretch. Rods, flies and the shuttle are part of the day, so your time goes into fishing rather than arranging.
Request a float tripOn foot, reading the water up close. Slower and quieter than a float, with more casts into the right seams — the best way to learn how the river actually holds fish.
Request a wade dayA guided day off-site on the river for your team, run end to end. Mixed experience is welcome — first-timers and regulars fish the same water in the same day.

Clinics and bench nights
Small groups, real instruction, and two ways in: casting clinics on the lawn and water, and tying workshops at the vise.
Group and private sessions that start on grass and finish on the water. We work from the cast you already have and build toward a drift that fishes, in a boat or tight to a bank.
Bench nights with materials on the table and a vise in front of you. We tie patterns for the water you plan to fish, and you leave with flies that hold up after a few fish.
How a guided day runs
The river sets the pace. We keep the day moving, change the rig when the water tells us to, and make sure you finish knowing more than you started.
Waders, boots and rods checked before we leave the lot. If you are new to the gear, we set it up with you rather than for you.
First light and the first seams. The boat goes in or the boots get wet, and you are casting within the first half hour.
Midday we move — new water, new rig, different depth. This is usually the stretch of the day where the fishing turns.
A break on the bank, then back at it with whatever the river told us in the morning. Flies get changed and leaders get rebuilt.
Nets, dry-out and a run through of what worked. If you are back for a clinic or a second day, we will tell you what to work on.
Bring layers. Mornings come in cold on the water and the afternoons warm up slowly.
Booking
Pick the trip or clinic you want and a date that suits you. We check the calendar, match you with a guide, and come back with a meet time and what to bring.
Pick the trip or clinic and the date. A short note about your group helps us match the right guide and the right stretch of water.
We look at the season calendar and the water, then come back with a confirmation, a meet time and the plan for the day.
Where to meet, what to bring, and what to expect on the water that week. Corporate days get the same run-through for the whole group.
Give us your group size and rough dates in the notes field. We build the day around the group, whether that is eight first-timers or a smaller team of regular anglers.
