The Madison River offers an amazing diversity of water and can vary significantly in its character as it travels on its course from Yellowstone National Park to the Missouri River. Different sections of the river offer different habitat, scenery, hatches and fishing techniques. In many ways the Madison feels like a completely different river from one location to the next. The variety along this legendary fishery is one of the many factors that makes it one of the most consistent rivers in Montana. It is a favorite for both DIY anglers and guided fishing trips. Although different sections of the river have their own peak fishing times, there is almost always a location on the Madison that is fishing well nearly every month of the year. The Madison truly offers some of the most diverse and consistent fly fishing in Montana. The Madison flows through one of the most scenic valleys in Montana and is flanked by the towering Madison, Gravelly and Tobacco Root ranges. The impressive scenery, high trout counts, potential for trophy fish and proximity to Yellowstone make this a must fish river for every serious fly fisherman.

Depending on the time of year, we will fish anywhere from Delacroix to Port Sulpher, Point La Hache and Venice, to the marshes of Houma (Point Aux Chien, Cocodrie, Dularge). We encourage clients of all skill levels to come fish with us. As weather is sometimes unpredictable, we will always have spinning rods in the boat with us if the weather just becomes too bad for the fly rod and can change tactics to better put fish in the boat. Our times on the water will also vary depending on the time of year. In the Summer, we like to try and be on the water quite early (6:30-7:30am) due to the immense heat that begins to build throughout the day as well as beat the summer showers that you can almost be sure of some days starting up not long after lunch. In the Winter, of course, it is quite opposite as we are more anxious for the middle part of the day to give us sunlight to warm things up a bit and get those fish active. Through the Fall and Winter we are normally aiming to be on the water for around 8-9am. We do not really go by any set amount of time on the water, but normally get anywhere from 6-8 hours of fishing in each day. That time frame on the water could vary due to things such as rain, tide, extreme cold or heat, etc. Of course our first priority is putting our anglers on as many fish as we can possibly do so while also keeping them in a safe setting. As for things to bring, you will need; polarized sunglasses, non marking shoes, light waterproof jacket (even on a sunny day, you may get some spray on you from a wave), and if you have your own fly rods and flies, you are more than welcome to bring those. If not, we will have everything you will need for the day. As for drinks and lunch, we are always sure to have plenty of water on board everyday and if you are staying at a lodge, you will receive a lunch from them.
