    Courses in southwestern Montana are held at Canyon Creek Ranch, a remote, full service guest ranch located 54 miles south of Butte.  The ranch is secluded at the end of the road, nearly an hour from the nearest highway, at the base of 10,000' Sheriff Mountain.

    This high quality guest ranch is situated on Canyon Creek, a trout-filled mountain stream that begins above in alpine lakes and flows through the ranch on its way to the world famous, "Blue Ribbon" Big Hole River.  Students/guests stay in private log cottages along the creek.  This historic guest ranch has a unique variety of fishing, horseback riding and outdoor activities ideal for the entire family.

    The "Fly Fishing Education Vacations" for Beginner/Intermediates are offered in late June/early July.  These offer a broad range of activities over 5 nights and 4 days.  Attendees have ample time to improve their fly fishing by floatfishing the Big Hole or Beaverhead Rivers; by stream, creek & meadow wadefishing; and gain alpine lake fly fishing skills at one or more of 6 "top of the mountain" alpine lakes reached by hiking or horseback.  Brown, Rainbow, Cutthroat and Brook Trout are abundant, and the rare Montana Grayling is also found in the pure waters of the storied upper Big Hole.  This course promises to give your western trout fly fishing career a major head start.

 

    Dana Cole, founder of The School of FlyFishing, and his daughter, Katie Cole, are your hosts for these sessions.  The courses include 4-5 night's lodging & meals; and 3-4 days of fly fishing education and experience.  For course schedule and pricing details see "Courses".  For full particulars about Canyon Creek Ranch, click here.  For further information on the courses, Request Information.  To sign up for a course, go to Registration.   To learn about some recent graduates, go to School Graduates.  To view some additional photos, click here.
