At Dave Brown Outfitters, our “collection” of guides spans 2 countries, 2 U.S. states and 3 Canadian provinces.
Although the territory we cover is vast and ranges from the SW desert of Arizona, the Montana Front Range, the Canadian Rockies, and the Northern Great Plains, all our guides share a common goal:

They are all friendly, knowledgeable hardworking individuals that we a proud to work with. Bottom line, whether your passion is Fly-Fishing or Wingshooting, the Guides of Orvis-endorsed Dave Brown Outfitters gets it done in many awesome locations. That’s not a boast. It’s a fact.
When you offer clients unsurpassed angling on dozens of rivers and streams in six major watersheds across one U.S. state and two Canadian provinces along with great Wingshooting opportunities in 2 US states and one Canadian province, you’d better darn well be able to back it up.
We can and we do – daily, all season long, trip after trip and client after client.
We are all fly-tying, sunglass-wearing, drift boat-rowing, fly-fishing professionals.
Collectively we’ve fished or guided in dozens of countries on five continents, yet each summer we return to share that experience and breadth of knowledge with you. Our common goal is to provide you, the customer, with a Western Canadian fly fishing experience that you’ll talk about for years to come.
We’re willing to bet that we have the highest retention rate of clients in the region, too, the best endorsement of all.

We’re also the only full-time guide service of its kind in Western Canada. For us, this isn’t a “second direction” of another business used to supplement income. Outfitting is all we do and we do it year-round. No one knows the water like we do, and no one can offer you the same level of customer service, expertise and professionalism.
