To many, there is simply fly-fishing. There’s no particular season, there’s no particular species, there’s simply a lifestyle.
It’s not necessarily about the number of fish caught, nor the size. It’s not whether I hooked into the biggest brown I’ve ever seen, or making the perfect cast to feeding fish. It’s not even about the atmosphere, the beautiful Montana sky, the free-ranging cattle looking on as you successfully snag the bush behind you; nor about the fresh mountain air, the fellowship, or the knowledge gained from your experienced guide. Simply put it’s about all of it. (more…)

There’s a lot more to do to coincide with your fishing trip! There is plenty of outdoor activities for everyone of every age to enjoy around the ranch and the surrounding area. White Sulphur Springs, although quaint allows you to experience “small town Montana” and with wide open spaces and fresh Montana air, you’ll enjoy any activity under the big Montana sky. (more…)

This is quite a fish!!! Dave Thompson, avid fly fisherman from Bozeman, caught this beautiful Brown Trout on the Smith River. Dave is a regular on the Smith when he can get away from his busy office at Brickhouse Creative in Bozeman. Every now and then he finds a day where he can sneak away and make the short drive over to catch fish like this one. We thank Dave for sending us this great photo and also, take a listen to Dave’s cd that is nationally acclaimed to the fishing industry – - Fishing Music!!!!!
Fall in Montana: Beautiful scenery changing from the summer green palette to the vibrant orange and yellows of Fall, crisp fresh air, bull elk bugling as the rut kicks in, and Big Brown Trout.
