Great Fly Fishing is Closer Than You Think

Just outside of our Montana fly fishing territory lies the Gallatin and Gardner Watershed. This watershed contains two wonderful stretches of water—the Gallatin and the Gardner. Both of these stretches are anglers' dreams. These slow currents, crystal clear water, and abundant hatches contain some of the best fishing in Montana.  
I have been guided on ten trout fishing trips with Greater Yellowstone Flyfishing Outfitters. Each was a special fishing experience. Chad Olsen and his team of guides are unparalleled in their fishing expertise in the WY and MT Yellowstone region.

It was clear that the GYFO guides were not only well-versed in the art of fly fishing but also deeply passionate about it. They were eager to share their wealth of knowledge, patiently explaining the intricacies of the sport and offering invaluable tips and tricks.

What sets Greater Yellowstone Flyfishing Outfitters apart is their commitment to providing a holistic experience. It's not just about the fishing - it's about immersing oneself in nature's beauty, appreciating the water's tranquility, and experiencing the thrill of the catch. The guides were incredibly attentive, ensuring every trip aspect was enjoyable and memorable.

In conclusion, if you're looking for an unforgettable trout fishing experience, I cannot recommend Chad Olsen and Greater Yellowstone Flyfishing Outfitters highly enough. Their expertise, passion, and commitment to providing a top-notch experience make them the ideal choice for novice and experienced anglers.

The Rivers of the Gallatin & Gardner Watershed

The Gardner river flows a little faster than the Gallatin so we often recommend floating its waters to our more adrenaline oriented fly fishing vacationers. Still, whether you're floating, wading, or nymphing you'll be able to snag rainbows, cutthroats and browns.
