Running Line
Running Line is a chronicle of our journey, both personally and as a company, into the world of Montana fly fishing. Part fishing report, part sales and promotions, and part personal soap box, Running Line is a showcase of words and images used to keep our readers informed and entertained.
I am blessed to be able to live in this amazing place and to do what I love for a living, and there’s nothing I like better than sharing my world with those who share my passion for fly fishing and for the rugged beauty of Montana.
Running Line is a blog about life on the Missouri River and beyond. We want to keep you up to date on what’s happening on the river, but we also want to share with you the ups and downs of running a fly-fishing start-up business in this highly competitive market.
I hope you enjoy reading and continue coming back for more.

Buds are popping, grass is greening, and more days than not we’re seeing sunshine and temps that feel a lot more like mid-May than early April.What’s also popping? Bugs.Midges are everywhere, and we’ve been hearing reports of BWO’s showing up in fishable numbers in the canyon over the past [...]
Spring Season Underway
Spring is beginning to show itself on the MO. Photo by Wolf Creek Angler Last Friday marked the official first day of spring and while in Montana we’re accustomed to winter weather for at least a portion of the start of spring, this year we got a taste of summer to kick things off with temperatures in the 70’s over the weekend and more mild weather this week. Weekend traffic was moderately heavy and barring a return of winter weather, [...]
