We didn’t set out to build the biggest guide service on the Missouri River. Just the best.

Effort

Few fly shops take the time and energy required to make sure your guided trip goes as smoothly as possible. Headhunters is the only outfitter owned & operated shop on the Missouri River, and unlike many shops, we know exactly what it takes to make a great day on the water. Our team does everything possible to match you up with the right guide, find the best lodging option and price, and get you set up with all the gear you’ll need.

Guides

Our guides are the best on the river, evidenced by the number of trips they do each year. Many of our top guides do over 140 trips a year. These are full time guides and are committed to putting you into fish. That’s how they make their living. Our staff is comprised of mainly younger and energetic guides who work hard to insure you have the best day of fishing possible.

With fry fly fishing as our primary focus we are always excited to help in any manner we can. If that means refining your reach cast, understanding dry fly presentation, or having a discussion about insect entomology…our guides are well versed on all topics Missouri River!

Trips Offered

The vast majority of our trips are full-day float trips on the Missouri River. There’s not a lot else to do in Craig, so we tend to put in long, hard days. Make sure and tell your guide if you want a shorter day (8 hours or less).

We do occasional half-day trips, typically scheduled around arrival or departure day schedules. We also offer our popular “Beat the Heat Specials” during mid summer, and our “Spring Special” from mid-March through April.

Rivers

Most of our customers are here to fish the Missouri River, and that’s what they want to do. We do offer guided trips on other area streams like the Dearborn and Blackfoot Rivers, and our shop staff is more than willing to point you in the right direction if you’re looking to do a little wade fishing on your own.

• Deposit Policy
Headhunters requires a 50% deposit when booking a trip. Customer balance is due at the culmination of the trip. Deposits will be refunded in full with a 30 days or more notice. Cancellations between 15 and 30 days will have their deposit applied towards a future booking. Cancellations within 14 days will forfeit all deposit monies. At Headhunters, we understand that unforseen circumstances can lead to canceled trips, and we reserve the right to make refund decisions on a case by case basis. Trips cancelled by the guide or mutual guide/client decision due to weather, state or federal closures, or other uncontrollable circumstances will have the entire deposit refunded.

Let us know if you have any dietary restrictions, allergies, or health issues. Let your guide know in the morning if you need to be off the river at a certain time. Special request lunches must be ordered well in advance.
