As part of our 10th anniversary celebration, we are offering some great rates during our spring season. There are some great hatches to fish in April and May - starting with Skwala Stones on the Big Hole, Blue Wings on the Beaverhead and enough Caddis on all of our rivers to keep anyone busy for a couple days!
Take advantage of some great rates, and fish our rivers prior to the spring thaw. For more information, or to hold some dates, please call 406.684.5648 or email us for more details!
Stonefly Outfitters - Montana's Last Best Flyshop
Here at the Stonefly, it's always been about people. We are not inventing anything new by adding the "Last Best Flyshop". Instead we are paying closer attention to details, making sure you have the best gear available during your Montana Fly Fishing Vacation. Because our guide staff has selected the gear for the shop, you won't get sold any item that you won't find useful. When it comes to Montana Fly Fishing, Stonefly Outfitters has all the bases covered. With gear from Simms, Hatch Reels, Scott Fly Rods and custom flies from the best tiers in Montana - what else could you need?
The 2012 Simms catalog is now available online. Full of new products and great imagery by Brian Grossenbacher. Check out their new catalog online. Shoot us an email if you are interested in any of their new products, or have any questions about them. We will be happy to answer any questions or ship a product to you!

Montana Fly Fishing Report
The transition from one season to the next is upon us. There are skwalas on the Big Hole, BWO's on the Beaverhead, The Ruby is in great shape and the Jeff will probably fish for those with a sense of adventure. One day conditions can be perfect, and the next they may be a bit more dismal - but the fishing will be better than not going at all!
Our busy season is almost on us, and we are offering some great specials in the interim. Everything from $375 guide trips to $200 fish-a-longs. Give us a call or send us an email for up to date conditions or to check availability. This is our 10th anniversary season, and we plan to have a pretty good time celebrating it - will you be part of it?

In November of 2012 we will also be hosting a trip to good old New Orleans chasing Redfish with our friends Nick Sassic and Scott McMilla... standby for dates and details! We scouted it out this past October, and it's one heck of a trip! *sold out!*
Why a hosted trip? It's simple - we have been there, and know what to expect. We know the lodge, the guides, the food and the fishery. We will bring enough tackle, flies, know how and fun to make your vacation the best it can be. Trust your guide on that one. After all, these are the places and people we spend our money on as well!

OUR MONTANA FLY FISHING SEASONSWhen should I come? Have a look at our season recap and it may help you decide. A brief synopsis of our seasons and hatches compiled by Rooster and his staff of Montana Fly Fishing Guides..... |
Emily and Tyler Cote sent us this thank you....
"We just want to say thanks for the incredible week we spent with you guys in Twin. Everything about the experience exceeded our expectations. Your guides, staff, food, accommodations, location and of course the fishing were all just incredible. Like I told Emily that day we were out on the spring creek, you guys gave us the chance to catch (and blow!) more big trout in one day than I have in all of my combined experiences as an angler. We were little nervous when we flew into Bozeman and saw high water everywhere, but you guys consistently put us on to fish and had a plan to work around what mother nature was dealing out after weeks of epic rain. As this was our first real destination fishing trip, we don't have a lot of experience to measure against - but I've got to say the bar has been set pretty high.
We already miss Montana and the crew at the Stonefly Inn and can't wait to get back. Next time we will try to recruit some friends to go along and we will absolutely spread the good word on our end. I learned a lot of really cool stuff and I count the whole thing as being right up there with one of the best experiences of my life. Thanks Rooster! " --Emily and Tyler Cote, Monmouth, Maine.
