Owner and guide Rodney Campbell brings deep river knowledge and a hands-on approach that appeals both to novices and seasoned anglers.

The rivers around Bozeman, including parts of the Gallatin, Madison, and Yellowstone, feature rocky foothills, cottonwood groves, and open meadow stretches, creating diverse fishing habitats. These waters provide a prime setting for rainbow and brown trout, with occasional cutthroat encounters—their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights making for memorable angling.

Beyond fishing, the region combines geological diversity—from basalt outcroppings to limestone formations—with abundant wildlife like elk and bald eagles, enriching the experience. The area’s fly-fishing heritage stretches back over a century, and local conservation efforts focus on protecting native fish and the river ecosystems.
