Backcountry Angler
Backcountry Angler's River Lodge is located within a stone's throw of the Beaverhead River near Dillon, Montana. Southwestern Montana is widely known as one of the great fishing destinations in the Rocky Mountain West. We offer an experienced guide service, deluxe lodging, & quality equipment in our fly shop. We also cater to the non-guided fly fisherman by offering lodging in our Fly Shop Inn. The suites in our Fly Shop Inn are comfortable, private and convenient to amenities. Most fishing is for Browns and Rainbows on the rivers. However, there are also Cutthroats, Brook Trout and Grayling in the area we fish. The excitement of a wild trout hitting your fly - and the test of wills that follow - is an unforgettable experience in a truly beautiful setting.
This cozy Rocky Mountain style lodge was built by Tom and Mary Smith. The location and comfortable style that they choose for the lodge was based on a lifetime of guiding fly fishermen. Every detail has been carefully thought out to give you a wonderful time away from your day to day life. It is a special place that you will want to enjoy with family and friends year after year after year. Our select staff of professional guides can ensure a quality experience while fishing on our famous waters for truly wild trout. We cater to the experienced as well as the intermediate or novice angler. Float fishing is the most productive method to fish our blue ribbon streams. Your guide with years of expertise will position the boat to give you the best possible cast into the finest holding water. You will also wade fish the most productive runs and riffles. Float trips are accentuated by a tasty streamside lunch. For the best trout fishing adventure we suggest our 5 day/6 night package.
