Testimonials


"All four of us caught fish!"

Eric was such a fantastic guide for our family outing on the river! He was knowledgeable, patient, and made us all feel safe. All four of us caught fish! We had a great lunch along the river and a very memorable day. We highly recommend him as a guide and we are planning to go out on the river with him again this year!
— Breanna Polacik

"We don’t fish unless Eric is our guide."

Nearly 10 years ago, we had the pleasure to have Eric as our guide. Since then, we don’t fish unless Eric is our guide. He has made us better fisherman and goes the extra mile to make it a special experience on the river!
— Diane & Rick Dewbrey

"I would recommend him to anyone."

I have fished with Eric Knoff for two days a year for the past three years. He has the personality, experience and knowledge of fly fishing in Montana to make that time an outstanding experience. I will be fishing with him again this fall and look forward to our time together on the water. I would recommend him to anyone.
