We had a great time with Nate and James from the Tackleshop in Ennis. We fished the Madison River and caught trout and “whitefish”. Our guides were very knowledgeable about the river and Montana in general. They kept us entertained and informed throughout the trip. We did a half day trip that was just right. Would highly recommend Nate and James.-The Pickles

Wow. What a place to visit. Awesome, knowledgeable and great guys. Went fishing on the Maddison about a week ago, and even fighting the wind we were able to land some amazing fish. Very good priced and sweet gear in the shop. Thanks for all the work you guys put in to keep the Maddison an AWESOME river to visit! Great shop, staff and great guides!

Awesome group! Kelly & Kurt did an incredible job putting my 15 yo, 13 yo, my wife and myself on the fish on the Madison and the Yellowstone full day float trips! Their guidance while also maneuvering the boats was beyond helpful and showed their expertise. We caught some great trout (browns & rainbows) and also a ton of whitefish. When we come back to MT we will definitely be asking for these two again. Thanks for an incredible time!

Have been in this shop on multiple trips to Ennis over the last 3 years. This year I was able to have time to take a 1/4 day free fly fishing casting class. I ended up renting fly fishing gear and fished the Madison the same day. Great people and service.

We had an absolute blast visiting this shop and fishing with these folks. From a great day on the water to multiple visits to the store for advice and gear, each interaction was genuine, helpful and fun. Hank and Jimbob were a blast out on the water and Manny and Riley were so helpful in the shop. Thanks all!!

In a series of different fly fishing experiences, I wanted to try wading. Jim Bob picked a perfect, beautiful spot - he was very good teacher, pleasant company and VERY patient! Despite the rain and few catches due to my inexperience, it was fun and I learned a great deal.

A great well stocked tackle shop with friendly knowledgeable staff. Their guides John, Kurt and Nick were excellent for our float trips. Highly recommend them for fishing in the Ennis area!

Incredible 3 days fishing with Business Manager & Guide Hank on the Madison River. He consistently put us on the fish and it was awesome to use his high end Orvis gear. Love throwing dry flies and watching the eats! Absolutely blessed for the experience & awesome memories of not just the numerous rainbow & brown trout (my wife caught a nice whitefish too), but also the beautiful scenery & wildlife with bald eagles, golden eagle, osprey, heron, trumpeter swans, geese, ducks, and gorgeous white tail deer and antelope. Can’t wait to come back and do it again!

I worked with John and The Tackle Shop to get a couple guides booked to float me and some family members on the Madison. The whole process was incredibly well done. We had a couple of young kids (ages 8 and 13) fishing with us, one of whom had never fly fished. John got us hooked up with a couple of guides who did a great job getting us all hooked on some fish. And more importantly the guides were great with our kids, giving them one on one casting lessons and going the extra mile to help them catch some really nice fish. This extra attention goes a long way in helping to stoke kids interest in fishing so I really appreciated it.
