Our Territory

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.  
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 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.
