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. |

John and Terri Herzer John and Terri started Blackfoot River Outfitters in 1996, after six years' of guiding for other local outfitters who failed to implement their own standards of fun, energetic professionalism. In contrast to most large Montana fishing outfitters, together they still tally more than 150 days a year on the waters of Montana and are the preferred Western Montana outfitter for noted booking companies like Frontier's International Travel. Terri started fly-fishing in her home state of Colorado upon entering Durango's Fort Lewis College in 1984, and has since angled all across the West and several saltwater destinations. Prior to moving to Montana, John guided fishing and whitewater rafting in his native Colorado, plus New Mexico, Arizona, Wyoming, Utah, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and even Africa. Terri and John's combined guiding experience totals more than 30 years and is going strong! |
