Our Territory

Fish the Source of Yellowstone's Winding Rivers

The Yellowstone Headwaters is the largest lake in our Yellowstone fly fishing territory. This lake is 20 miles long and 14 miles wide of unobstructed fishing heaven. If you're looking to get lost on a large body of water for a week at a time or to sail up from Montana to Wyoming, the Yellowstone Headwaters is a great place to start. 
You can easily spend days at a time sailing out to deeper water and in to shore in a relaxing, meditative way during your next Yellowstone fly fishing trip.  
GYFO is unbeatable when you want a true flyfishing experience on the river. We have done multiple trips, and Chad always gets us into a lot of fish and unbelievable scenery without the crowds of drift boats and rafts that clog the rivers nowadays. On our last two trips with GYFO, we never saw another fisherman, drift boat, or raft, which is unheard of nowadays; unless you're fishing with GYFO, Chad knows how to get you on public water without the crowds. You're a valued client with Chad, not just another number with dollars to spend.

The Waters of the Yellowstone Headwater

Yellowstone lake is a massive trout fishery filled to the brim with trout, abundant hatches, and classic alpine charm. You can go trout fishing on the waters of Yellowstone lake for weeks or more at a time and never cast you line beside the same line of coast twice. Come explore the expansive Yellowstone lake with us today. 
The Yellowstone lake is flush with variety. On its waters you'll be alongside our guides fly fishing for cutthroats, Whitefish, red shiners, lake trout, and grayling to name just a few. 
As the Yellowstone river leaves Yellowstone Lake it becomes wide, lazy, and slow. Perfect for wade fishing, nyphming, float fishing, or any other kind of guided fly fishing trip. So feel free to pick your poison. We can even guide you from the Yellowstone Headwaters into anther one of our watersheds, the Yellowstone Canyons. Come fly fishing on the blue ribbon fisheries of the Yellowstone river with our fly fishing guides.
