Guided Fly Fishing Trips in Bozeman, MT
The Flyshot Philosophy
At Flyshot Outfitters, we exist to deliver honest, seamless river days that feel timeless. Whether we are floating the Madison, Yellowstone, or Gallatin, we measure a successful day by the quality of the experience, the level of instruction, and fishing with intention. We provide a low-pressure environment where you can unplug, refine your mechanics, and let the day develop naturally. We don't watch the clock; we watch the water.
Montana Fly Fishing Trip Offerings
Full-Day Float Trips: Our flagship guided experience. Committing to a full day allows us to cover miles of river, adjust tactics to changing hatches, and fish intentionally without ever feeling rushed. It’s a comprehensive immersion into Montana fly fishing, complete with a premium river lunch.
Half-Day Trips: A focused, highly efficient session on the water. This condensed trip is perfect for anglers with tight travel schedules, families introducing kids to the sport, or anyone looking to refine their skills before exploring the rest of Bozeman.
Guided Wade Trips: Step out of the boat for an intimate, hands-on approach. Ideal for anglers wanting to focus heavily on reading the water, technical casting, and dissecting runs on the Gallatin or upper Madison rivers.
Winter Fly Fishing (Nov – March): Experience unmatched solitude and highly rewarding technical nymphing during Montana's quietest season. We focus on precise sub-surface presentations using small nymphs, eggs, and worms. We also schedule our trips during the warmest window of the day to maximize both your comfort and the productivity of the fishing.
Custom Itineraries & Multi-Day Packages
If your goal is to experience multiple rivers during your stay, we will build a custom itinerary tailored exactly to your schedule and skill level. Spending one day floating a big freestone river like the Yellowstone and a later day floating a classic tailwater like the Madison gives you a fantastic tour of the region. We also know that a great vacation requires balance. You do not need to fish four days in a row to have an incredible trip. We frequently help clients build itineraries that include rest days. You might fish with us for two days, take a day or two off to explore Yellowstone National Park or relax in Bozeman, and then jump back in the boat for another two days on a totally different watershed. Our goal is to build your fishing days seamlessly around your other activities so you stay fresh and enjoy every moment on the water. Contact us directly to map out your ideal multi-day trip.

Planning a big event can feel overwhelming, but we make the entire process incredibly easy for the organizer. You just let us know your headcount and your goals for the trip, and we take care of the rest. We pride ourselves on utilizing only the hardest-working, highly skilled guides in Montana.
