About Bent Fly Fishing
Bent Fly Fishing is a premier guiding and outfitting service based in the Flathead Valley of Northwest Montana. Operating out of Bigfork on the northeast shore of Flathead Lake, their team of licensed guides leads clients to productive water across the region, from the Flathead River to Whitefish Lake and beyond.
They offer full-day and half-day guided trips for both river and lake fishing. River trips target native cutthroat, rainbow, and bull trout on drift boats and walk-and-wade setups, while lake trips on Flathead Lake and Whitefish Lake chase trophy lake trout and pike. All gear, flies, and instruction are included, making their trips accessible to complete beginners and experienced fly anglers alike.
Bent Fly Fishing has built a loyal following through consistently high catch rates and a laid-back guiding style. Their guides grew up fishing these waters and bring an encyclopedic knowledge of local hatches, seasonal patterns, and hidden access points that larger operations often overlook.
