Darryl Deleon runs a great trip! I have fished with him many times over the past 10 years and he works tirelessly to get us on fish even in tough conditions. He knows the Missouri like the back of his hand. Thanks again Darryl and see you next year!

It's my 2nd year in row with Darrel. I did the 3 day trip both years starting from never having touched fly rod and gaining a lot of confidence. My hook and land rate has gone way up now in my second year. Darrel's a great teacher if you're looking for that and he seems to outwork everyone on the river. I'll definitely be booking again next year.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolute Masterclass on the Missouri River!If you are looking for the ultimate fly fishing experience in Montana, look no further than Darrel DeLeon and Montana Trout Hunters. We just wrapped up an unforgettable 3-day trip (July 1–3), and to say it exceeded expectations is an understatement.Darrel’s expert, localized knowledge of the Missouri River is second to none. He understands the complex hydraulics, hatches, and structural nuances of the Mighty Mo like the back of his hand, putting us on fish consistently even when conditions shifted.What truly sets Darrel apart, though, is his genuine passion for teaching and education. He isn't just about netting fish; he is dedicated to making you a better angler. Whether breaking down subtle presentation adjustments, explaining insect behavior, or perfecting drift mechanics, his instructional approach is patient, clear, and incredibly rewarding.Over our three days, we utilized a masterclass of multiple techniques to target both wild Rainbows and bruising Brown trout. From technical, match-the-hatch dry fly fishing to deep nymphing rigs and aggressive streamer presentations, Darrel had the tactical playbook dialed in perfectly for every stretch of water we hit.To top it all off, the scenery was absolutely breathtaking. Drifting through those iconic, sweeping Montana vistas while hooking into world-class trout is something we won't soon forget.Darrel and Montana Trout Hunters deliver a top-tier, professional, and deeply educational guiding service. We’re already counting down the days until we can get back on his boat. Highly, highly recommended!

Had an absolute blast! I learned way more about fly fishing than I ever could imagine. Fishing is a lot more fun when you learn to do it properly 😁

Darrel took my son and I out and it was a trip of a lifetime. The scenery was something out of a movie. He knows every inch of the river and was able to help us start down the road of learning the essence of fly fishing. I cannot recommend him more!

I have fished for 5 years with Darrel. I have learned so much and he isn’t just a guide, he doesn't just row you down the river he puts you on lots of fish, and big ones.
