The Trout Shop - Craig, Montana
The Trout Shop strategically resides on the hub of the river in the two-block town of Craig, Montana. Getting here and getting on the world’s best trout stream is easy. Take Craig Exit 234 off of Interstate Highway 15, look for an uncanny number of drift boats and turn right.
Before you walk through The Trout Shop's entrance, you'll know that you're in the right place. The culture you're looking for eagerly prepares for the day in the busy parking lot, all with the same thing on their minds - nothing, but wondering if they can figure out how to fool the large, wild trout that the Missouri River is famous for. They wonder how they can trick, much less land, one of those fish with a tiny dry fly on a long leader and light tippet. Perhaps, that's why they keep coming back year after year.
When the Missouri River Guides close their tailgates and slowly leave the parking lot, you know the fishing adventure you dreamed of has begun.
