    super awesome captain, Chris was great!

    Half day guided fly fishing on October 4, 2025 • 2 adults

    If you want to talk about grace, then let's talk about Chris our guide was amazing, he had every right to get mad at us. I hooked his lip, deep with a fly, my gloves twice, a tree, and a steel line, and we broke one of his rods. He maintained his cool the entird trip. What a great human. he spent extra time with us, and made sure we caught a fish. This was no easy task with our lack of knowledge. Then it started pouring rain and this man rowed our boat down river at mach 1 without missing a beat! It really was a great day on the water. Sorry about your lip kind sir!

    2 days on the Clark Fork

    Full Day Trip – Missouri River on April 22, 2023 • 1 adult

    Had a great time fishing with Captain Mike Price out of Missoula for a couple days. He took me to a couple of runs that don’t get much fishing pressure and we tore into a handful of trout each day including catching a couple off dry flies and only saw 1 other boat that weekend. He was very knowledgeable and I was able to learn a good deal. Highly recommend!

Michael grew up in the woods, learning hunting and fly fishing in Connecticut. With his grandfather as his mentor, an avid outdoorsmen and Connecticut State Park constable, he honed his Trout fly fishing skills. Michael spent a season in Southwest Alaska, which opened possibilities to Southwest Montana and its endless wild Trout streams. He ultimately settled down in Sheridan, where his wife Theresa and himself raise their two children and 2 Lab's named Maggie and Tippet.

    The PMD hatch is in full swing on Missouri River right now and the trout looking up lying in wait for them to drift into their waiting mouths. The PMD or Pale Morning Dun is a mayfly species thats a pale yellowish olive color with a gray wing in a size # 14-18. They’ll start hatching at about 9:30-10:30 am and continue for a few hours to most of the day. The Missouri Rivers slick, spring creek like currents lend themselves to dry fly fishing. Look for dimples on the surface. These trout will often pod up in prime spots to feed very efficiently. Using the current to bring the food to them. Back eddys are a good place to find rising trout as the bugs go round and round like a lazy Susan. We find the fish will prefer a cripple pattern early in the hatch then the dun, followed by the spent spinner. Best dry flies. Sparkle Dun #14-18 Extended body parachute #14-18 Pull Over cripple #14-18 Limestone cripple #14-18 Organza spinner #14-18 Rusty spinner #14-18 Hi Viz spinner #14-18 If the fish aren’t rising, go with a short leashed leader with two flies. Tie your first fly on at about 3.5 to 4’ under an indicator and the second fly of the bend of the hook or a short tag. Mend often and set the hook when the indicator moves or goes under. Best nymphs: Pheasant Tail nymph #14-18 Split back brown #14-18 Barr emerger #14-18 Hunchback Infrequens #14-18 Contact us to book your Missouri River Fly Fishing Adventure!
