The famed fly fishing waters of Southwest Montana

Fishing for trout on Montana's fly fishing rivers.

Tight Line Adventures Home Waters

Not many other areas, at least not in the United States, can claim to have access to so many Blue Ribbon Trout Rivers as there are here in Southwest Montana.  There are a lot of places where rivers and streams weave their way through the landscape, and may have one or two good rivers in the bunch, but they do not have anything compared to our “Big Five”.

The Big Hole, Beaverhead, Madison, Jefferson, and Ruby Rivers are world class trout fisheries, all located within an hour of Dillon, and each one offers a slightly different angling aspect than the other.

Fish here a week and you can go from nymphing deep runs, laying dry flies into the tall grass, pulling streamers through gorgeous pocket water, and catching an evening spinner fall all on the same river!  Sometimes that happens all in the same day.

Add to that, miles of water through landscapes unchanged by human hands since the days of Lewis and Clark, and you have a true Montana Tight Line fly fishing adventure.
