Madison River FLy Fishing Guide
The Madison River flows North from Yellowstone National Park where it joins the Gallatin and Jefferson Rivers to form the headwaters of the Missouri River. The Upper Madison River is known as the 50 mile riffle due to its shallow and fast flowing currents. The river flows through the beautiful Madison valley with majestic high mountain scenery in every direction. With its many large boulders and its continuous riffle, the Madison River is perfect for the dry fly and the streamer fisherman alike. FishWater Outfitters have the most experienced Madison River fly fishing guides in Ennis, MT. There are many opportunities for wade fishing, although we predominately fish from a Clackacraft drift boat. There are many Rainbow and Brown Trout throughout the river with an average trout ranging between 14”-16”. There are plenty of large, above 20”, rainbow and brown trout caught during all seasons while fishing with one of our Madison River fly fishing guides.
Beginning in late June to early July, as the runoff slows down, the Madison river really begins to get hot. The Madison is very unique because it can be fished in many different ways successfully while offering the trout of a lifetime! The Madison River can fish very well with both wet and dry flies through the summer and well into October.
