Montana River Shuttles

River shuttle services are an integral part of the Montana fly fishing scene as floating these legendary western rivers is the standard way to fish and experience them.

Be sure to call ahead and early in the mornings (before 9 am) - especially if fishing a new river or area - to ensure availability. When making the call, you will want to have your vehicle description, license plate number, and key location on hand to give the driver over the phone. Payments are typically made using cash or check that is left in the vehicle for the driver - exact cash is typically requested and amounts vary depending on the location.
