The Missouri River,
from Holter Dam to Cascade, is the “best dry fly river in the
world”!
Prolific
mayfly and caddis fly hatches and over 5,000 wild browns and
rainbows per mile, many of them 20”-25”
(Click Here to See Photos)
with the average trout caught being 17”-19”. I
seldom hook a trout less than 17”. The bows and browns are
incredibly fat specimens! Like most rivers, you must time your
visit within the proper time frame as the time for this action has a
narrow window. Our trip is at the peak period of insect and
trout activity when it is difficult to get guides or accommodations.
I reserve my guides and accommodations about 12 months in advance to
insure the very best opportunities for my clients.
This trip always surpasses everyone’s expectations, with an average
of 15 wild rainbows and browns per person, per day on dry flies
and more if your
skill level is good. The
Missouri at this time is a ”kick ass” river with sipping
trout all day through dark! Our guides are the best on the
river (we float 5 consecutive days). The guides will also wade if
you like. I also make special arrangements to float until dark, a
rarity on the
Missouri.
We
usually fish two sessions per day; 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM and then again
6:30-10:00 PM to catch the incredible caddis hatches in the evening.
My guides receive extra compensation for this service.
Practically every guide on the Missouri is off the river by 6:00 PM
, so we have the river practically to ourselves on the evening
floats.

previous trips)
For the
7th consecutive season I’ve made arrangements so that
anyone who would like to can fish the “Land of the Giants”
where you will hook 20”-28” wild browns and bows on dry flies,
nymphs or streamers according to the conditions, absolutely
incredible! This is an area that is difficult to get to and
requires special boats, hence, I am relegated to one boat
per day. The remaining 4 float days will be on my favorite
stretches of the Missouri, floating and wading the ultimate dry fly
river, the famous 35 miles of the big Missouri from the tailwater at
Holter Dam to Cascade, where you will sight fish for hot browns and
bows 16”-24+” with “match the hatch” dry flies

We will stay in a great place called Woodcock Lodge which fits 10
people comfortably. I also rented the log cabin next door which
fit’s another 3 people. There are 4 ½ baths, air conditioning and
humidity control, excellent dining facilities and 2 living rooms.
Both buildings sit side by
side and are right on the river, with beautiful views of the river
and mountains and great fishing outside the door, where our chef cooks and serves wonderful breakfasts, dinners and
barbeques.
Steaks,
chops, roasts, chicken, ribs with all the trimmings, plus homemade
baked cakes, pies, muffins – and plenty of it.
So, it’s great fishing, great guides, good food, wine and
upscale accommodations.
