Awesome day on the bow! Rainbows fight so hard!

Petar was a fantastic guide - patient, fun and worked well with my daughter who is new to fly fishing! I caught the biggest fish of my life on the Bow - 25 inch brown who was a beast! We will be back and ask for Peter again. This is a first class buying outfit!

Had great fishing and guiding while fishing with Dave, Jack and Ralph ! Good sized fish even under less than ideal river conditions ! Would recommend them for any serious fly rod fishermen and will return some day !

Wow a trip to never forget! I could not be happier with my experience with Dave Brown Outfitters. I fishing for 3 days the water was high and muddy and at first I was a bit discouraged well that all changed very quickly 20 minutes into the float down river when my leech dropper went under and I strip set and was not quite sure if I hit a snag but it was no snag I never felt the power and torque in my rod like that in a long time. I along with my guide Gavin knew we had a big Trout on our hands I knew if I got Her on the reel I could lose Her but used all my experience not to panic during this epic battle so I stayed on the line and went toe to toe with her for at least 10-15 minutes trying no to horse her and once we saw Her we knew we had a fish of a lifetime on our hands. We managed to steer her close to the bank and Gavin was quick to the draw to land this beauty 26 inch Brown Trout. we were both somewhat speechless for a brief moment and then we were tossing high fives and fist pumps. We took some awesome pics and Gavin with surgeon hands carefully handled Her and let Her swim out of the next when she was ready. Little did I know but it was only going to get better we landed another beast a 25 inch Brown we only managed to catch a couple more in the 20 plus range that day in the 3 days landed a average of 4-5 fish a day but the size was nothing short of shocking. I fished with Gavin 2 days and Dan the final day and both were masters at their craft and even better people they didn't over guide kind of there to let you figure things out and knew just when to tell you how to improve your skill. I even had a chance to break bread with Dave Brown himself who was on the water and he was a super nice guy also. I am so pumped I going back next month. I am one happy customer thanks guys.

Mike Turnbull guided us for a day on the Bow. He was cheerful, competent, and well-organized. We fished in off color water as a result of heavy rains but he found fish for us and we did well. He was articulate and interesting, good at telling us how best to fish in those conditions. His equipment and the lunches were first rate. We’d gladly fish with him again.

Dave's guides knew the river well and worked hard in tough river conditions to find fish.

Bow river conditions were awful. Mother Nature screwed it up. With that said, I enjoyed my guides who worked hard in impossible conditions. Kudos to all involved. I would happily float with DB again.

Amazing day on The Bow River! Our guide, Gavin, was excellent. Plenty of huge, hungry Browns.

Both guides Jack and Peter were professional, attentive, fun and successful. Our 3 floats were excellent.

Quinn was a great guide!! Caught lots of trout, a great experience for my grandson and myself!!

We just finished 3 days of fishing on the Bow. Our guides were top notch, putting us on great runs throughout the river. DBO always has some of the best guides on the Bow and in BC, on the Elk and surrounding rivers. I've used them a few times and I always have a great experience.

Best day trip experience from start to finish. My 2 boys & wife can’t stop talking about it. Both tour guides (Dan & Jack) were exceptional on communication, expectations and took the time to assist our group of 4 on any/all items we needed. My older son & I were with river guide Jack all day and the enthusiasm from him every time we caught a trout made the other person try that much harder to catch the next one. We caught 5 apiece with me catching the last one minutes before we put the rods away.

great guide great day

Great time on the Bow. Tough conditions but we managed to move some fish.

Great guides

. Started at 8 am . The bow river was not muddy and not clear . We were unable to enter the river at the first location so spent the morning traveling from one entrance spot to another finally getting to fish around 11:30. The fly casting lessons were great but we were not able to catch any fish which was a big disappointment for myself , my son and grandson. The guides were good guys and we enjoyed them .

We had a wonderful day on the river with our fantastic guide, Nancy! She was a pro, made everything easy and fun, and I really feel much more confident in my fly-fishing ability as a result - highly recommend!

Quinn was an outstanding guide for the two days in June that we floated the city beat of the Bow. He was engaging, patient, and quite knowing. Because of high water releases, the fishing conditions were dismal and it seems that everyone on the river got skunked (yet the weather was bright and sunny). On day two, the CMS had risen higher and we encountered light rain all day. Nonetheless, Quinn put be on a pod of happily rising browns and we had a hoot for a good hour mid-day casting to them. All in all, a wonderful experience.

Justine was great. Conditions were really dry but trip was a blast.

Absolutely incredible time! Guides Dan and Jack were amazing. I fished with Dan myself and as a trout guide myself in SW Montana I couldn’t be more impressed. Had a great day and caught lots of very nice fish. Will definitely be back to fish the Bow river and wouldn’t want to do it with anyone besides those two!

Great trip, caught fish all day definitely will be back, great guide as well!!

Good experience! Pooty knows the Bow and what it takes to catch fish!

Great guide. Great fishing. Well organized.

World class trip! Our guide Jack put us on some world class fish that made for a trip of a lifetime.
