“Pat’s an incredible guide. But he’s also someone you’d want as a neighbor, a truly good guy and a renaissance man. He’s a total pro but completely relaxed and focused on your experience. Cannot wait to return to Montana’s amazing waters with the best guide anywhere.”

“I was in charge of planning a weekend in Missoula for a trip w/ a college buddy of mine in Missoula. Of course, I waited until the last minute (not recommended) and reached out to Pat for a lifeline. He found the best guide I’ve had the pleasure of fishing with–patient, overall great guy, and a true pro (we’ve got pics of the 32″ bull trout caught on the Blackfoot to prove it!). We had an absolute blast!”

“After 20 years, two best friends from high school reunited with our families and fished the Yellowstone with Pat and it was truly an experience of a lifetime! Pat, and his entire crew, couldn’t have been more hospitable. Their experience on the water is unparalleled. Pat’s patience and ability to work effectively with a group ranging in age from 11 to 67 was remarkable.”

“Pat Straub certainly knows how to listen to the sound of the river. More importantly, he loves to teach you how to do the same. The fishing was tough, the weather great, and the scenery breathtaking. Pat wove these elements into an unforgettable memory. We caught lots of fish not just because of Pat’s knowledge and experience, but because he never gives up. He loves what he does and shares it freely. We savor the memory and look forward to the next day on the water with Pat.”

“I’ve been out to Montana many times over the past 20 years, and have hooked up with Pat and his guides for multi day guided fishing. Pat took the time to carefully listen to what I was looking for, offering suggestions and ideas. and then set up perfect trips. He set up a custom trip that  met my needs, and on top of that, they know how to fly fish!”
