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.

Mid Week Update
Almost as though on cue, Mother Nature thwarted my proclamation from yesterday that fall had returned with a mid week blast of cold air and a fresh blanket of snow covering the banks of the Missouri this morning. Temperatures won’t make it above freezing today but winds are calm so it is actually quite tolerable and could be a good day to be on the water. We’re still on track for sunshine and a high of 50 tomorrow and near 60 [...]
Fall Returns
November on the Missouri November is upon us and it looks like we could be in for a great week of fall fishing ahead and if we’re lucky, maybe even a couple of more weeks of chasing trout before the holidays take over our collective schedules. Expect good BWO action this afternoon and throughout the week and don’t miss out on what could be our last, best weekend of the season. We’ll see sunshine and highs near 60 on Friday [...]
