If you can follow basic instructions and can tell your left from your right you are going to catch a lot of fish. I still have no idea how they know exactly where the fish are but they put you right in the middle of it. You'll even get some help from the oars if your cast isn't perfect. Add... More

I had never gone fly fishing before. Garret and Pat took me and my two friends on a full day experience that flashed by in what seemed like minutes. They got us out and catching fish immediately, no time wasted. Amazing instruction, artful navigation of the mighty missouri, and ninja-like knowledge of the fish locations. These guys are beyond expert... More

I just returned from my 6th float of the Mo with Garrett and as always it was a unique and incredible fishing experience. Absolutely the most knowledgable guide on the river and one of my favorite people in the world to hang out with for a day. I brought along two first time anglers on a day that started out... More

My wife and I found Garrett on the internet and you never know if what you read on the web will be accurate. Garrett was very helpful and always available to help us out. Our guide was Bill DeMers from Missoula and he was outstanding. The fishing slow in the mornings but by each afternoon we had brought in approximately... More

"Listen to the sound of the river and you will get a trout." ~Irish proverb~ Pat Straub certainly knows how to listen to the sound of the river. More importantly, he loves to teach you how to do the same. The fishing was tough, the weather great, and the scenery breathtaking. Pat wove these elements into an unforgettable memory. We... More

Pat and Garrett and their guides were great. Colter started out trip on the Yellowstone, where we saw a golden eagle, bald eagle and caught lots of fish including a 20" brown. We ended our trip with Kevin in the Land of the Giants and that proved true to its name. We didn't catch a fish under 18". In between... More

Greetings fellow anglers. My neighbor and friend Bill invited me to spend the week with him in Helena. He had long described the talents of his favorite guide Garrett Munson. Reflecting on the week,I too now count Garrett as a friend and certainly the best guide I have ever fished with. We began on the Missouri starting below the dam.... More

Five days with Garrett this year. A new personal best! Yes there's the Mo. But the creeks are not to be missed should an out of state angler want up the experiential ante. Our final and fifth day on the Blackfoot explains everything about a guided trip with Garrett. The outsized Cuts had gone missing. Garrett was getting frantic. Perfect... More

Ever float the Missouri River? If not, don't miss the opportunity to catch big trout and be educated about Montana by your fishing guide Garrett Munson. Easy flowing, beautiful setting, fabulous lunch, many fish and a perfect way to spend the day. This would be a great father/son, husband/wife (our trip and yes the wife got the bigger fish), grandfather/grandson... More

This was my first time fishing on the Missouri River and I can't say enough good things about it. Not only was Garrett Munson a great guide but he introduced me to techniques that I had never learned in my 15 years of fly fishing. The "Reach Cast" was something I had never heard of but Garrett was an excellent... More
