Join us on Montana’s Big Hole River for a fully guided fly fishing float trip! Float down the famed Big Hole river in all of its majestic beauty while casting your fly to likely trout lies. The Big Hole has over 90 miles of floatable water and the several sections have very different personalities. Our guides will teach you everything you need to know to catch that trophy trout!

Under no circumstances will we put more than 2 people in a boat.

Please tip your guide directly. Cash is king. A 20% gratuity is considered proper.

Big Hole River
Full Day Trip – Big Hole River on July 16, 20231 adult
I had two incredible days on the Big Hole with LaMont Carter, couldn't ask for a better guide! Lots of fish to the boat both days, including several over 19 inches. If you're thinking about fishing the Big Hole, think FishTales and LaMont. You won't be disappointed.

July fishing trip
Full Day Trip – Big Hole River on July 25, 20232 adults
The water was high high and fast, the wind troublesome but the browns and bows were large healthy and great fighters. The guide worked endlessly to match the nymphs with the fish's choices.
