West Yellowstone isn’t just a gateway to the park—it’s a world-class fishing destination. With blue-ribbon rivers like the Madison, Gallatin, and Yellowstone within reach, plus Hebgen Lake right outside of town, anglers are spoiled for choice. Whether you’re chasing trophy trout or trying fly fishing for the first time, guided tours make it easy to enjoy these legendary waters.

If you’re brand new to the sport, the Half Day Yellowstone River Walk-Wade Fly Fishing trip is the perfect starting point. You’ll stand right in the river, learning casting techniques, reading the current, and handling fish with guidance from an expert. It’s approachable, educational, and family-friendly—great if you’re short on time or want to dip your toes in.

For anglers who want a little more action, the Half Day Yellowstone River Fly Fishing Trip covers more ground while still keeping the outing manageable. You’ll fish multiple sections of the river and have more chances to hook into rainbow, brown, or cutthroat trout. It’s a smart fit for those who already have some experience or want to maximize their time on the water.

If you’d rather combine fishing with a different kind of Montana adventure, the Horseback & Yellowstone River Scenic Float blends two classic experiences into one outing. You’ll ride through wide-open country before drifting down the river, rod in hand, soaking up scenery and wildlife along the way.

Here’s a simple way to decide: short on time? Go for the walk-and-wade. Want more variety? Choose the half-day float. After a unique combo? The horseback and float deliver.
