SOME OF THE MOST MAGNIFICENT SCENERY YOU ARE LIKELY TO EVER SEE

Yellowstone’s iconic canyons are a memorable journey for fly fishing guides and anglers alike, and that’s before you take into account the stunning views. We’ll take you and your your fellow travelers on a guided fly fishing trip you won’t soon forget.

The Yellowstone Canyons Watershed houses what many people refer to as "The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone." The Canyon is a Montana bound stretch of river flanked on either side by sloping cliffs that look carved from the mountains beside them with an unearthly sharp chefs knife. 

These slopes are, of course, carved out by thousands of years of steadily flowing water. So, when you float fish the Yellowstone Canyon's Watershed with us on a fly fishing trip, then you're literally floating past thousands of years of brutally gorgeous geographical history. Come witness the majesty of the Yellowstone Canyons Watershed with us.

We had an outstanding fishing experience with Chad Olsen of Greater Yellowstone Flyfishing Outfitters on the Missouri River, and I would highly recommend his services. First, Chad pivoted our original plans based on the Yellowstone flooding and helped us relocate to a new base in Craig. His knowledge of multiple rivers was a key to our successful trip. Over three days, he was patient based on our experience level and set up different floats on the river for changes of scenery. He was nimble in fly selection to ensure we continued to catch fish. I can't wait to return, and I will use GYFO again.

The Rivers of the Yellowstone Canyons Watershed

As the Yellowstone river enters the Yellowstone canyons its wide, lazy, and slow moving pace quickens slightly. This stretch of the Yellowstone River is bad for wade fishing, but perfect for guided fly fishing trips filled with nyphming, and float fishing. Follow this river to the Lamar or Slough watershed, or fish it all the way into our Montana territories, the choice is yours. Either way, you're sure to get a bundle of unforgettable fishing memories from this expansive stretch of water.  Be on the lookout for rainbows, brooks and—occasionally—a brown or two during your time fly fishing this section of the Yellowstone river.
