My partner and I fished with Mike on the Beaverhead on July 25, 2013. We were provided a very full day on a river that is heavily fished. Despite heavy river traffic, Mike structured our day in such a way that we actually contended with very few others. We actually had relative solitude on crowded waters--no small accomplishment. The trip went off as planned with no unpleasant surprises like, "Oh there will be a charge of $35 for flies." NONE of that. Michael proved to be personable, extremely competent, and utterly professional. Most importantly, he had us on fish ALL day. We landed 25+ fish that day and several were 20" or better. When I return to the Beaverhead I will book Mike without hesitation. Thanks for a great day! Visited July 2013

This March will be my third early spring in a row fishing with Mike. I couldn't imagine a more enjoyable experience. From the peaceful, beautiful conditions you fish in, to the excitement of fish after fish that Mike puts you on, every moment is amazing. Mike is very patient and mixes wading and drift fishing nicely. The best part is that Mike gets as excited as I do when I hook a fish. "The tug is the drug" - Mike Stack I will keep coming back to Mike at least every year.

Mike is very knowledgable and was very patient with me since it was only my 2nd time fishing!! He was prompt, helpful and encouraging. And the lunch was fantastic!!

A Montana fishing secret, Jefferson River provides beautiful scenery of the surrounding Tobacco Root and Highland Mountains, and some of the best trophy trout fishing in Montana.
The hatches of the Madison are legendary. Swarms of Mother’s Day Caddis and giant Salmon flies entice thick shouldered rainbow and brown trout from its swift currents.
Experienced or beginner, the Ruby is the perfect wade fishing stream as there are no boats floating through your water. Couple that with beautiful alpine valley views and solitude, and a day on the Ruby is not to be missed.
