overview
Learn to Fly Fish Lesson + 1/2 Day Gallatin River Raft Trip
The guides will begin instruction on fish and fish habitat, reading water, identifying insects, selecting flies, and familiarization with fly fishing gear. The course will flow into dry-land casting practice without hooks at targets. Once the group is comfortable with the basics and understand some river safety tips, we will slip on the waders and head to the river in search of the big bite!
The rafting portion is approx. 3 hours, with about 2 on the water depending on water levels. The Gallatin River is a technical river that runs through a scenic, rocky canyon. It has fun rapids and is the most challenging commercial rafting available in the Yellowstone Area. We run two main sections of the river, catering to a more or less challenging experience.
