Montana Fly Fishing Outfitters
Livingston, Montana
This is a small guide operation based in Livingston, Montana, listed as Montana Outfitter number 53540 and run by Parker Smith, who cites over 15 years of guiding experience. It also works the Madison, following that river from the Between The Lakes water below Hebgen Dam past Earthquake Lake, through the Madison Valley and Ennis, and on through Beartrap Canyon toward Three Forks. Madison runoff is noted from May into early June, after which crane flies, green and grey drakes, yellow sallies and a late June salmonfly hatch take over. Lesser-known waters around southwest Montana round out the schedule. No shop, lodging, rental fleet or shuttle service is advertised.
