PLEASE FEEL FREE TO INQUIRE FOR ANY DAYS AS THERES A GOOD CHANCE A GUIDE IS AVAILABLE FOR YOU!

Fishtales Outfitting is located between Bozeman and Missoula Montana, an area that is known to fly fishermen across the world as ‘Trout Mecca’. Benefit from more than 70 years of combined experience that Michael Stack and his team bring to the company. Enjoy the scenery of Montana as you should do, with a fly rod in your hand and a smile on your face.

With ten Blue Ribbon Montana Trout streams plus our private water all within easy reach, it has the ideal location to offer some of the best Trout fishing services you could ask for. We guide on the Big Hole, Beaverhead, Madison, Jefferson, Ruby, Yellowstone, Missouri, Blackfoot, Bitterroot, and Clark Fork.

You will be exploring these world-class freshwater fishing grounds aboard a 14’ Clackacraft or raft built specifically for drift fishing. Both stealthy and agile, these vessels are ideal for fishing the rivers of Montana. They offer dry storage and comfortable seating for anglers on board.

Your trip will involve expert-guided fly fishing in one of ten fabled Montana trout rivers in western Montana. Whether you are a beginner to fly fishing or a seasoned angler, the team will make sure that your trip is fun, successful, and memorable. You’ll target Brown, Rainbow, and Cutthroat Trout on these trips. In addition to this, you also have the option of fishing some private ponds where you'll sight fish for Rainbow and Brown Trout in the 22-28" class.

Children are welcome on board, so you can take your family out on a fun fishing adventure. Teach your kids about the joys of fishing, and make some unforgettable memories with them. There will be snacks and drinks on board, and on full day trips, you’ll get lunch as well.

Fishtales Outfitting is Montana’s most diverse outfitter. We offer 10 legendary Montana rivers, private water, and friendly expert guides.
