Fishing Schedule
Bob Marshall Wilderness
Horseback and Fishing Float Trips


Our Fishing trip consists of a two-day horseback ride from various trailheads into the Bob Marshall Wilderness, along the South Fork of the Flathead River.  Depending on where we start, we may not be at the river the first night.  Once we reach the South Fork, we camp along the river so you can fish from camp.  On the third morning, we start floating the river and this can take three or four days depending on the length of your trip.

The Flathead river is one of the last rivers to have native West Slope Cutthroat trout.  This is a fly fishing river.  A novice fishermen should be able to catch 20-30 fish a day.  The average fisherman should be able to catch 50-100 fish a day.  An experienced fisherman can catch 100 plus fish a day.  These fish run from 6" to 24" in length and weigh up to 5 pounds.  The scenery is breathtaking and the stout-hearted can swim.

This is an easy, relaxed float, not a whitewater trip.  Everything is provided except your personal gear and fishing license.  A fishing license can be obtained here after your arrival.

 

Special Note - We now offer a semi-guided float fishing trip.  On this trip you would row your own boat, help set up camp and help with the cooking and dishes. This is a considerable savings to you.

DATES - These trips run July - September, they are 5 to 10 days. For exact dates of trips call (406) 296-2642.
