The Waters You’ll Fish
The Local Rivers & Creeks
Fly fish our guides’ favorite spots on the beautiful Elk River, Wigwam River, Michel Creek, Bull River and Flathead River. Read more about each of these amazing fly fishing destinations below.
ELK RIVER
The Elk is one of the premier fly fishing destinations in the world. This glacial fed beauty is 220km of breathtaking scenery and emerald green waters holding fat west slope cutthroat trout and the occasional very large bull trout. The Elk river is the bread and butter of fishing in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. offering a float by drift boat or raft.
WIGWAM RIVER
The Wigwam River, nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, stands as our crowning jewel. Brimming with fat cutthroat and large bull trout, this is a walk and wade river that has moderately difficult access but offers a rewarding experience.
MICHEL CREEK
The Michel is by far one of the best Cutthroat producing streams in the world. The average cutthroat measures around 14″-16” but it is not uncommon to push into the 18″-20” range. This creek is a great way to ensure you have the true “cutthroat trout experience”. Michel creek is walk and wade only, but has short, easy access from the road to the water.
BULL RIVER
The Bull offers 117 km of secluded wilderness fishing in aqua blue water. The river is separated into two major sections by a hydroelectric dam; the upper bull, and the lower bull. The upper stretch is a cutthroat fishery which is accessed primarily by walk and wade. On the lower Bull we target cutthroat, bull trout, and the occasional rainbow. The lower offers an incredibly scenic float by raft.
FLATHEAD RIVER
The Flathead Valley has some of the most breathtaking scenery you will ever see. We fish the extremely remote headwaters of the Flathead, primarily by walk and wade until it reaches the Montana border.
