…on the best fishery on Mother Earth!

Hooray, watching the world go by...

We’re enjoying a terrific summer.

Will you come and visit?

Ask your in-laws, not to come, but if they will watch your kids.

Book today for great fall fishing.

Nice fish Duke. Caught on the lower Missouri below Moroni Dam. Loomis fly rods handle the Big Dogs!!

Prarie Sunflower | Helianthus petiolaris | Aster Family

These common sunflowers line the roadways in Montana. Not uncommon to see entire fields of them wild while driving to your next great fishing destination. If you are smart, it should be here…on the world’s greatest dry fly fishery.

Boy, the fish are getting a little easier. Or some of them are. You will still bump into bomb proof sippers…that ignore the for hours at a time. Accept defeat and move forward. Or crack a fresh bbeer and continue the madness. Your choice.

Painted Turtle | Chrysemys picta | Pond and Box Turtle Family

See these fellers around the river, not as often as we would like. I know that they are good luck in saltwater circles, and probably in the trout circles as well.

Best of luck and Happy Sunday!

Moo cow

Finding shade on the Mo is tough…but is this cow smarter than most? Yes. Most of us? Probably. We’re trout fisherman…

Some hopper angling…with some success. Weeds down low have started, not an issue though.

Fish rising most of the time, although it can get tough in the late afternoons. Groups here now and all are happy.

Short leash nymphing, headhunting, and terrestrial afternoons…what could be better. Free block of cheese with every guided trip.

Want a 3hr cruise? Try our BTHS for a casting primer, a nymphing lesson, or a simple drift down the Mighty Mo.

HH open daily 7am til the wee hours of the night, or 9pm, whichever comes first.

I'm Free!

Yummy...food

Friday at Headhunters Fly Shop…BBQ sausages, dogs, and whatever else tastes good burnt on our charcoal Weber. We think about 5 ish we will get the coals red and open a cold Budweiser to start the weekend off right. Montana loves this way of life.

Come spend the late afternoon into evening with your favorite friends on the Missouri. We will be tossing the football around, swinging the Wiffle ball bat, and maybe tossing a fly rod or two as well.

Stop in for a dog, a chat, or the entire evening after fishing Friday.

Headhunters…the apres fishing locale in downtown Craig Montana.

Luke Andrews posted up...

Luke posted up on dry fly fish. Darren got this fish to eat a dry, but it was not easy. Fun can be had today onthe Mo with any fishing fantasy that you hold. Bring your ticket and your dreams to Headhunters Fly Shop for fantasy remittance.

It’s good, all the way around. Any way you slice it…it’s good. The fishing part.

Will you catch 100 fish…probably not. Although I could just puke up 6 cups of coffee up this morning for the countless times I’ve heard of 100+ caught in a day…even Rome was not built in a day. 100, come on dude.  You bullshit your friends, I’ll bullshit my friends, but let’s not bullshit each other.

Headhunters is wonderfully busy, as is the river. Not super busy, but a noticeable increase in anglers this last week. The fishing seems to be commensurate with the increase in pressure. Lots f fella’s out towards dark. The fishin’ and the caddis behaviors active in the waning light.

Vivian, nice...

Vivian caught her first fish yesterday…and it does not get better than this. She is so excited, or freaked out she forgot to smile. Thanks Vivian for spending your inaugural fishing day with us at Headhunters!

The fishing is fantastic folks, the water down, and the local fellowship…outstanding. Izaak’s slinging world class dinners until way late…have a cold Budweiser on our porch after a day of successes. We welcome you to cash in that fantasy ticket this summer. Although this ticket never expires…
