GUIDED FLY FISHING
What is included with a guided fly fishing trip?
A guided fly fishing trip with Missouri River Fishing Co. includes expert guiding and instruction on one of Montana’s premier trout fisheries, non-alcoholic beverages, rod/reel, tackle, flies, river shuttle, and a delicious lunch (full day trips).
What is NOT included with a guided fly fishing trip?
A guided fly fishing trip with MRFC does not include guide gratuity, a Montana fishing license, personal outdoorwear (rain jacket, waders, boots, hat, sunglasses, sun gloves, etc.), or alcoholic beverages.
What is an appropriate gratuity for a guided fly fishing trip?
Appropriate gratuity for a full day trip is $100-150 per guide. Our guides rely on tips to offset their daily expenses of gas, lunch, river shuttle, tackle, and flies. Gratuity is greatly appreciated by our guides, as they work hard to put you on fish and make your experience as memorable as possible.
