Welcome to Bear Trap Canyon Fishing Ranch, located in Montana’s legendary Madison River Valley. Due to its unmatched insect hatches, the Madison River is known as one of the greatest wild trout fisheries in the U.S. and has some of the best dry fly fishing in the country. In the Angler’s Guide to Montana, the Madison is described as “in many people’s opinion, Montana’s river of superlatives, with a list including highest trout density, most consistent action, best dry fly fishing, and most spectacular scenery.” The ranch is 101± acres and boasts Madison River frontage, enabling many days of excellent fishing out the back door. Outstanding views of the river, mountains, prairie habitat, and the historic Bear Trap Canyon provide a beautiful setting and an exquisite piece of Montana.
