Sonya Meldahl5.0VerifiedFull day trip on The Yellowstone
Full Day Trip – Yellowstone River on July 20, 2023 • 2 adultsMy husband & I had the fishing experience of a lifetime! We had never been fly fishing before. Our captain patiently showed us the tricks, expertly navigated the boat, and helped each step of the way. The views were incredible and fly fishing was awesome! We found it easy to catch fish & loved the entire process. Lunch was great & we felt well taken care of. This was trip was our “splurge” for ourselves and was worth every penny. We will absolutely do it again next year!

Half day guided fly fishing on July 21, 2025 • 1 adultGreat trip with Dave. Even there were challenging conditions in the river, heavy wind and fish were not very active, we were able to find good catches with dry fly. Beatiful river and nice fishing. Dave is very talent with the boat, fishing gears and know good spots. HIgly recommended.
Mark SaxtonRepeat angler5.0VerifiedA Great Day on the Yellowstone, With a Guide who Knew It Well!
Full Day Trip – Yellowstone River on September 10, 2024 • 2 adultsFishtale Outfitters is a top notch service that finds your fishing needs and preferences and matches you with the right Guide. Mike coordinated everything and was a great communicator. Our guide, Garet, could not have been more professional and knowledgeable. Between my brother and me, we caught over 50 fish...one being a 19 in Rainbow! That's a big fish! Thank you, guys! Y'all made our trip complete! Mark and Tom Saxton
