Welcome to the Parks' Fly Shop Website. We are located in Gardiner, Montana, within sight of the Yellowstone River and a quarter-mile from the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park. All the prime water within the Park, the blue-ribbon portion of the Yellowstone River, and many great private lakes and spring creeks are located within an easy drive, making us the most centrally-located fly shop and outfitter in the region.

The rivers and lakes of the Yellowstone region have been our obsessions since 1953. Our philosophy of focusing narrowly on our home waters guides every facet of our business. We stock only flies & gear useful within 50 miles of our door, we designed and/or tie almost half the fly patterns we stock, and on our standard guided fishing trips we fly fish only the Yellowstone River and Yellowstone National Park.

Give us a call to book a guided fishing trip or check on river conditions. In the summer, we guide or fish every day, so we can give you up-to-the-minute information. We look forward to introducing you to the great fly fishing Yellowstone and southwest Montana offer, not to mention the other outdoor wonders in our region.

The Custom Flies link provides information on the wide range of custom flies we stock. The Guide Service link includes information on the walk & wade trips, float trips, and other guided trips we offer. The How-To section includes fly tying videos, podcasts, and the Trip Planner, which provides more free information on fishing the Yellowstone region than many guidebooks.
