I purchased this book about six months ago. I’ve traveled to Montana in the past to fish, and was planning another trip this summer. While we planned to fish some old, familiar rivers such as the Yellowstone, the Madison and the Gallatin, we also wanted to try some new waters that we hadn’t fished before. My wife and I spent time reading the information on the various rivers discussed in the book, and decided to also spend time in the Missoula area. We used the book not only as a tool to decide where we wanted to fish, but we also used the maps to get us where we needed to go. The end result was a successful fishing trip to Rock Creek and the Bitterroot,which was certainly aided by this exceptional book. By the way, the authors are incredible photographers; their photos in the book are great. I recommend that anyone contemplating a fly fishing trip to Montana purchase this book prior to their trip.

Useful, concise, aesthetically pleasing. Clear simple maps. Concise explanation of where to fish, when to fish, what to fish with. Other books go into much more detail. This is a good one to start with.

By far one of the best written and easiest guides to excellent fishing on some of the best waters in Montana! The photography is spectacular.

We have had a cabin on the Madison River for 27 years. I built it during my mid-life crisis. It is my favorite place to go for many reasons. Last year I went up over a dozen times and enjoyed every minute. The author tries to capture his experiences with friends, family and nature as best he can in the Madison Valley at a ranch he rents. I think he left out some very important information about the Madison Valley, Ennis and the locals but only gives you his perpective of his traditions and trips. Needless to say, I was disappointed.
