Montana Fly Fishing Guide
Spring Creeks and Private Waters
Some of the best kept fly fishing secrets in Montana are the smaller spring creeks and private waters. These locations offer a degree of solitude and exclusivity that is unparalleled in the fly fishing world. Through special relationships, Willow Ranch is able to enjoy fly fishing the small, privately owned waters that often offer the greatest rewards. Keep in mind that these lesser-known locations come at a price. Spring creeks and private waters have rod fees of anywhere from $75 to $100, however the rewards are well worth the extra cost.

Some of the local spring creeks we enjoy include the Armstrong’s, DePuy’s, and the Milesnick spring creeks. These fisheries have been popular destinations for many years, and there is no better place to fine-tune your angling skills. Here every fish you catch is your own personal battle won, as the waters can be much more challenging. This style of Montana fly fishing is a great contrast to the larger rivers we frequent, such as the Yellowstone and the Madison.
