Fish the Source of Yellowstone's Winding Rivers
The Yellowstone Headwaters is the largest lake in our Yellowstone fly fishing territory. This lake is 20 miles long and 14 miles wide of unobstructed fishing heaven. If you're looking to get lost on a large body of water for a week at a time or to sail up from Montana to Wyoming, the Yellowstone Headwaters is a great place to start.
You can easily spend days at a time sailing out to deeper water and in to shore in a relaxing, meditative way during your next Yellowstone fly fishing trip.
Our fly fishing group has used Chad Olsen and GYFO for the past ten years and have never been disappointed. He instructs without being overbearing, knows the rivers of Montana and Wyoming well, and consistently puts our group on fish. His knowledge of each river is extensive and often finds fish when other nearby outfitters are watching in awe. His ability to teach fly fishing techniques and fundamentals during the fishing day has made us all better fishermen. His sense of humor and his gentle reminders to "center up" on the boat and to "set the hook" (!!) make for a fun day on the water. He's by far the best guide/outfitter I've used in over 30 years of fly fishing. Our group of 6-10 fly fishermen have used him exclusively for the last ten years when we venture out of Colorado! Any day on the river is good -- but a day with Chad makes it exceptional!! He's more than a fishing guide to us -- he's become a good friend as well!Gary Dahlen

The Waters of the Yellowstone Headwater
Yellowstone lake is a massive trout fishery filled to the brim with trout, abundant hatches, and classic alpine charm. You can go trout fishing on the waters of Yellowstone lake for weeks or more at a time and never cast you line beside the same line of coast twice. Come explore the expansive Yellowstone lake with us today.
The Yellowstone lake is flush with variety. On its waters you'll be alongside our guides fly fishing for cutthroats, Whitefish, red shiners, lake trout, and grayling to name just a few.
As the Yellowstone river leaves Yellowstone Lake it becomes wide, lazy, and slow. Perfect for wade fishing, nyphming, float fishing, or any other kind of guided fly fishing trip. So feel free to pick your poison. We can even guide you from the Yellowstone Headwaters into anther one of our watersheds, the Yellowstone Canyons. Come fly fishing on the blue ribbon fisheries of the Yellowstone river with our fly fishing guides.
