Overnight Fly Fishing Trips | Deluxe River Camping

Overnight Montana fishing trips allow our guests to take in all that the Big Sky state has to offer. Our specialized overnight guides set up deluxe riverside camps while you sit back and enjoy the setting sun on a remote beach along a blue ribbon trout river.

Although you will be casting into world class waters each day, fishing often takes a back seat to the specatacular scenery and the pleasant pace of the river. It doesn't take long before our guests ask "what day is it anyways".

Days are spent casting to wild trout with seasoned fly fishing guides. While you are enjoying the fishing, a gearboat races ahead of the fishing party to set up an elaborate camp complete with tables, chairs, large tents and tarps, fire pans, etc.

After an enjoyable day of fishing our guests pull into a full camp to enjoy a cold beverage and some warm appetizers. Sit back and enjoy the setting sun or make a few more casts while a hearty dinner is prepaired over the fire and in Dutch ovens.

FAQ

"When one of my employees told me last year that her nephew Brian McGeehan was a fly fishing guide in Montana, my radar went up immediately. I checked out his excellent website, and was immediately 'hooked'! The next question was which trip to book? I was really excited about the option to camp on the Yellowstone River, and so I made arrangements for my 3 good friends from graduate school to join me on a 3 day fly fishing and camping adventure in God's County. Brian and his wife Ann made the planning so easy, they were prompt and professional in all of their communications, and they effortlessly took care of all of the details. We arrived in Bozeman on a gorgeous day in late September and took the airport shuttle to the Hilton Garden Inn. Brian and Ann had previously arranged our hotel accommodations, and all we needed to do was show up and present a credit card for any incidental charges. The next morning Brian and the other guide Tom Jenni met us at the hotel to load up our overnight gear in dry storage bags, and to pack up our fishing gear for the drive to the Yellowstone. Before you knew it, we were on the water and catching fish! The next 3 days were an absolutely glorious blend of awesome fishing, breathtaking scenery, perfect weather and the pure joy of male bonding! Our guides Brian and Tom really know their stuff. They had an amazing knack of being able to read the water and know just where the next big trout might be, and maneuvering the boat to present us with the best chance to successfully cast to hungry fish. And catch fish we did! What a thrill, to see trout after trout slurp up our dry fly offerings and then put on a desperate battle, only to be gently photographed and then released to be caught again. The guides cooked delicious hot shore lunches each day, and in the evening we were greeted with a first class campsite with tents erected, and the cots, tables, chairs and awnings in place. We had a great selection of beer, wine and mixed drinks to celebrate the day, followed by an outstanding evening meal and then stories around the campfire. The smell of coffee and bacon or sausage woke us each morning and then it was off to enjoy another day of utopia. The great people with Montana Angler made our recent trip an absolute grand slam home run. We had the time of our lives with world class fishing made possible because of their world class guiding abilities. Brian, Tom and Conner were laid back, easy to please, fun to be around and did everything possible to make sure we had the time of our lives. We did! Can't wait to go back!"
