Winter Bozeman Fly Fishing Trips
Montana fly fishing outings are possible even during the winter, provided the weather is suitable.
On overcast days, mid-day Midge hatches provide excellent dry fly opportunities for experienced anglers. Novice anglers will improve their basic fly-fishing skills like casting, mending, and setting the hook while nymph fishing deep runs pools.
Discounted trip rates to the lower Madison River are available during our off-season (Nov-March). E-mail us for availability inquiries or secure a reservation online.
