A lot of chest pounding and puffery goes on over the Internet, I prefer to let past experiences speak for themselves.
I have been fishing all over Montana for 25 years. The last two years on the Missouri with Trevor have been some of my most memorable. My son and I have caught big numbers of trophy quality fish. Unlike some other guide experiences I have had, with Trevor you come away feeling that he genuinely cares that you have enjoyed your day. The day I depart is the first day I start looking forward to our next trip.

I fished with Trevor last year on the Missouri River by Craig, Montana. My son and I hooked and landed 15-20" fish ALL DAY LONG. My club and I are fishing with Trevor and his guides for 9 days this year (2010).

Trevor Madden is a guide I choose to employ whenever I go to Montana for a Fly fishing trip. It seems to me that Trevor's goal is to keep the clients fly in the water at the best possible locations to maximize the fly fishing experience. He loves to fish dries and if it is possible he will get you into fish on them. When the nymph is the best opportunity to catch trout he is really good at that as well. I have visited with other fly fishermen at the end of the day and a lot say they got a few nice trout, and I feel embarrassed to tell them how many fish we caught and had eat the fly. There are other good guides, however, Trevor sets himself apart as a class act.

I live in Tennessee but was in Montana between Helena and Great Falls in the summer of ‘08 checking out the area around the “Untouchables” bridge. I saw people float fishing down the Missouri in that beautiful stretch of the river. I told my wife that I wanted to do that and added it to by “bucket list”. She said “go for it”! I had an opportunity to return in 2009 and my wife reminded me of that thought. Not knowing any guides in the area, I “googled” trout fishing on the Missouri in Montana and found Trevor. I sent him an email telling him I was a novice at fly fishing with no equipment and asked for a price. I talked to some friends who are experienced trout fisherman in Montana and they advised me to go for it and I would not regret it! They were right! We met early that morning and within a few minutes of getting on the river, I was catching rainbow and browns beyond my wildest dreams! As other fishermen joined us on the river, we moved to other spots and continued to catch 18-22” trout almost every time we put a fly in the water. Trevor took good care of me and made sure my fishing time was maximized. We laughed and told jokes and he even laughed at my corny jokes about life in the south. We enjoyed the good lunch and plenty of cold drinks. After about 8 hours on the river, my arms were tired from hauling in fish.

My daughter and I got to fish with Trevor Madden for 2 of the days we were out there in Craig and he is really a great guy. Not only is he an excellent fisherman but a pleasure to spend the day with. We floated the Dearborn one day and the lower stretch of the Missouri on the last day with him and he could not have worked harder or been nicer to my daughter and I. Guys like him are hard to come by.

Hi Trevor,
I just wanted to thank you for a fun first time out flyfishing. I had a great time, Montana is beautiful, and I hear that catching four big browns on dries, is pretty good for my first try. Anyway thanks again for a fun float trip. Take care.

I have been fishing with many guides, some good and others not so good. I can say hands down Trevor is one of the best out there, knowledgeable, patient and most importantly fun to float with! Follow his instructions and you will most definitely catch some sweet fish!
