Fly-Fishing Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front
Flowing through Montana’s Rocky Mountain Front and fed by snowmelt from the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex, Mark Young Outfitters is fortunate to have one of the most pristine stretches of the Sun River. With cool waters, it’s ideal habitat for rainbow and brown trout. Fondly called “The Sun” by locals, it runs through 10 miles of our family-operated ranch. From April through September, we offer guided fly-fishing trips with our talented guides. From beginner to experienced fishermen and women, out guides are well-versed and ready to show you the best fishing the Sun River has to offer.
If you prefer to fish on your own, we provide do-it-yourself access on our private ranch lands. Fly-fishing is also available to our guests on smaller streams and creeks, including Elk Creek. With our on-property lodging, we make it easy to fish, stay and play in Augusta.
