January fish on!

Winter

Believe it or not, there is winter flyfishing in Montana, although the weather from late November through mid March can be a little bit daunting. We wouldn't recommend planning your fishing vacation for January, however if you are going to be here for business, skiing, or some other reason give us a call. If the weather is agreeable you'll catch fish (I don't like to fish much below zero because the guides keep icing up). There can be great winter nymphing as well as consistent midge hatches. The Paradise Valley spring creeks fish well throughout the year with their steady water temperatures (the warming huts help too!) so if you can stand the weather, the fish will eat.
