Can't decide between Montana and Wyoming? Fish The Lamar

The Lamar Watershed is a wonderful, blue-ribbon fishery filled section of the Yellowstone wilderness that straddles the border between Montana and Wyoming. The Lamar offers water of all kinds, from local getaways to remote locations that only the most experienced Yellowstone trout fishers try to conquer. Can't decide on the adventure you need?

Over the years, I've taken many trips with Chad - mule packing, floating, and good ole road-tripping. I keep coming back because Chad is an incredible fishing guide and host. Not only does he reliably get you onto amazing fishing, but he also has the heart and generosity of spirit to share the amazing backcountry he loves and has explored his entire life. His itineraries are incredible. He's absolutely rock solid in the field, knows his stuff (well beyond fishing), and is a fun and engaging host. When Katie comes along, it's double the fun, and you're assured of amazing camp cooking and hospitality! I've fished and adventured around the world. Chad and his organization, Greater Yellowstone Fly Fishing Outfitters, are absolutely top-notch.

The Rivers of the Lamar Watershed

The Lamar is mercurial, you need a specialized Lamar river fishing guide to really tease the most from your time on its waters. 

Schools tend to move up and down the banks on the hunt for food and shelter, making catching each trout even more satisfying.  Due the Lamar rivers difficulty, we recommend this batch of Yellowstone's fly fishing runs only for more advanced anglers. Fly fish the Lamar River for canny cutthroats, rainbows, and cutbows.
