Southwest Montana

Fish Your Grail River
Book an Adventure
Our Territory

A tight knit cradle of excellent fisheries

The Southwest Montana watershed is tightly packed with six incredible rivers that you can explore with a guided Montana fly fishing trip. 

Fish the Beaverhead, the Jefferson, the Clarks Fork, the Madison, the Red Rock, and the Big Horn.  Don't count this smaller watershed out, the variety of fly fishing available here is staggering. So, even if you don't currently have a grail river, you're sure to find water you won't be able to resist returning to year after year in Southwest Montana.  
My experience with Greater Yellowstone Fishing Outfitters (GYFO) has been incredibly good in so many ways. I started fly fishing in 2003 with Orvis outfitters in Idaho and Montana and maybe caught one fish each day. A relative introduced me to GYFO and I have been using them ever since because:
  • Each day trip has involved a different stream/river which is makes the trips much more fun;
  • I ALWAYS catch a lot of fish because Chad always seems to know what the fish are hitting that day;
  • Prices are very reasonable;
  • Chad always teaches me something new about fly fishing which I definitely appreciate;
  • I have become a much better fly fisher woman because of it which makes fly fishing even more enjoyable;
  • I reccommend GYFO for a very good and enjoyable fly fishing experience. Please use them if you want the best.

The Rivers of the Southwest Montana Watershed

The Gallatin is a classic wide, winding body of water that's perfect for the beginning fly fisher. Together, we can put together a Gallatin river fly fishing package to wade fishing or float fish to our hearts content. 

When your guided fly fishing vacation party isn't catching anything, we can soak in Yellowstone's rolling hill sides. You'll mainly be fishing for rainbows ad browns on the waters of the Gallatin.

The Jefferson River is an amazing stretch of river that begins in Twin Bridges, MT and stays relatively unbothered throughout the year by other anglers. 

Jefferson River fishing in Montana is accessible year round  and predominantly stocks for Rainbows. If you're looking for a local favorite fly fishing vacation area, or a quiet fishing get away, look no further.

The Madison river is popular among locals and offers a great chance for first time anglers to experience Yellowstone's ecosystem during a fly fishing vacation. 
Really, the Madison is a great option for anglers just looking to have some fun. Fish for rainbows and browns on these waters during a guided fly fishing tour.
