The Bull River, Montana
Located in western Montana, the Bull meanders through meadows for its first 12-15 miles below Bull Lake. This free stone, spring fed river is very deep in spots and holds some of the largest numbers of brown and bull trout I have ever seen. The brown drake hatches in May and June are absolutely incredible.

The Flathead River, Montana
Nestled at the base of Glacier National Park, the Flathead River and its 3 forks make for an absolutely beautiful fishing float. The river contains rainbow, cutthroat and bull trout, the latter of which you cannot keep. Huge stoneflies, caddis and generic nymphs predominate on the system.
The Moyie River, Idaho
Did you know, there is a wonder small river called the Moyie flowing into the Kootenai River just 12 miles inside the Idaho state line? This river may hold the state record brookie (and has great cutties and bows as well).
Big Wood River, Idaho
The Big Wood's headwaters are found just west of Galena Peak which is over 11,000 feet high. From its source in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, the Big Wood River flows 60 miles due south. Rainbows are caught in all sizes varying from 10 to 20 inches and it’s not uncommon to hook 15 to 20 trout on a good hatch day.
Clark Fork River, Montana/Idaho
This is the largest river by water volume in Montana. It is ever larger than the mighty Missouri. It flows through beautiful western Montana from above Anaconda, MT and empties into Lake Pend Oreille, ID which eventually empties into the Columbia River. For my tastes, the middle portion has the best fishing.
