At Blackfoot River Outfitters, we don’t hire guides based simply by their Montana fishing experience - but rather their life experience. Your time on the water is valuable. Too valuable to waste on a guide who thinks your trip is about them instead of you. Our guides will put you on fish, improve your angling skills and increase your fly fishing knowledge. Just as importantly, they enjoy sharing a good story, lay out an exceptional lunch spread and generally make fine company. Some of our guides have fished the world over, others grew up in Montana and find it hard to fish elsewhere. We have guides in their 50’s and others in their 20’s. They are students and parents, Easterners and Westerners, musicians and mechanics. All are special and go about the art of guiding in different ways – and all are hired to make the most of your time on the water. |

Jamie Rodgers As a youngster, Jamie couldn’t understand his old man’s interest in fly-fishing. The way Jamie saw it, the worm and bobber worked just fine. And, his dad seemed to be in a constant state of hysteria over another tangle or another fly in a tree. Until finally, on a winter day, in his family’s driveway outside of New York City, Jamie decided to give fly casting a shot. As they say, that was all she wrote. For thirteen years now he has honed his skills in tricking fish with fly. As happens to so many college students that come out West, Jamie’s interest has become a lifestyle. Fly-fishing is the great stabilizer in Jamie’s life, and he is thankful for everyday he gets to share with guests on the river. When he’s not rowing a boat, Jamie can be found writing, eating, or polishing his 1965 Airstream trailer (the pride and joy of his life). |
