Missoula Montana Fly Fishing Guides

I grew up fly fishing the trout streams and steelhead rivers of Upstate New York.  After high school I headed west to the University of Montana, where I got an unofficial degree in fly fishing the west and was consumed by the lifestyle.  After recieving my degree I began guiding on the Bighorn River.  I now live with my wife in Missoula, splitting my time between the freestone rivers of western Montana and the Bighorn.   Outfitter #11733

Words To Live By: “Everybody has to believe in something and I believe in going fishing.”
