Owner, outfitter, guide, and shop manager
- Jason Lanier has been fly fishing Montana rivers for over 20 years
and has been guiding Montana fly fishing
trips for 11 years. With guiding experience on over a dozen Montana
rivers Jason has guided just about every hatch Montana has to offer.
Jason started fly fishing in the 1st
grade and tying flies shortly after. He spent many of his childhood
summers traveling around Montana fly fishing anything that held fish.
After high school Jason moved to Montana to fish, ski, and attend college
(in that order). After receiving a B.S. from the University of Montana
he decided a drift boat was much better than a desk and continued to
pursue his passion. Over the years Jason has made the transformation
from shop dog, to fishing guide, to commercial fly designer, to outfitter
fly shop owner.
Jason is an inventor of many productive
trout flies that have fooled fish on rivers across the country. Montana
Fly Company produces Jason's flies and many fly shops carry his proven
patterns. You can find Jason's fly the "Strung
Out" streamer in the latest Cabela's
catalog and preview his other patterns at Montana
Fly Company.
