What Our Guests Are Saying
Real Stories from the Water
We could tell you how incredible a day of fishing with Paradise Valley Angler can be — but we’d rather let our clients do the talking. From first casts to personal bests, here’s what guests have to say about their time on the water with us.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Perfect for first-timers!”
This was my first time fly fishing, and Zach was so patient and encouraging. He explained everything clearly and celebrated every fish we caught. The walk/wade trip on the ranch was absolutely beautiful — peaceful, private, and full of fish!
— Jenna L., Seattle, WA
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Unforgettable day on the Yellowstone!"
I’ve fished all over the country and this was hands down one of the best guided trips I’ve ever had. Zach knew the river like the back of his hand, and he put us on fish all day. Incredible scenery, a great streamside lunch, and just an all-around amazing Montana experience.
— Mike R., Colorado
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Felt like family.”
From the moment we arrived at the ranch, we were treated like family. We stayed in the lodge, fished for two days, and honestly didn’t want to leave. Between the wildlife, the fishing, and Zach’s stories — it was everything we hoped for and more.
— The Harris Family, Dallas, TX
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Private water was worth every penny.”
We booked a full-day private water trip and it blew us away. No crowds, clear water, and big, hungry trout. Zach was a fantastic guide — knowledgeable, relaxed, and clearly passionate about what he does. Can’t wait to come back next season.
— Tyler M., Boise, ID
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Family-friendly and fun for all ages!”
We brought our two teenage kids out for a guided float, and it ended up being the highlight of our entire trip to Montana. Zach made it easy for everyone to catch fish and kept the energy high all day. Our kids haven’t stopped talking about it.
— Kelly D., Minneapolis, MN
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Incredible local knowledge.”
Zach grew up in Paradise Valley and it shows — he knew every bend, every hatch, and every little detail that made the day successful. We learned a ton, caught a pile of fish, and felt like we were fishing with an old friend.
— Sam W., Missoula, MT
