June fishing trip
Full Day Clark Fork River on June 27, 20262 adults

Our guide Mike was fantastic...knowledgeable and patient...he had wonderful stories and was a great conversationalist. We were a bit disappointed however that the trip was shorter than we'd expected and the details arranging it were a bit stressful.

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.
