General Montana Fishing Information.gif)
 The
fishing regulations in Montana vary widely from river to river
as well as from season to season. Any angler who will be fishing
in Montana will receive a copy of the regulations when they
purchase a fishing license. It is extremely important to look
closely at the regulations for whatever river you will be
fishing to avoid getting into any unpleasant problems with
the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
Montana Fish, Wildlife
and Parks also have the statewide fishing regulations posted
online. View Montana
Fishing Regulations Online.
Also be familiar
with the Stream Access Law before heading out to fish in Montana
for the first time. The Stream Access Law defines the right
of anglers and floaters to use the rivers in Montana, as well
as where you can access these rivers. We have a special section
detailing this law on this site, and encourage you to visit
our Stream Access Law
section before heading out fishing.
Finally, the State
of Montana has acquired hundreds of parcels of land along
prime fishing and recreational use rivers. These are called
Fishing Access Sites (FAS). Each river profiled in Big Sky
Fishing.Com lists the fishing access sites that are found
on it, and provides a direct link to that fishing access sites
specific information. To view all the Fishing Access Sites
that are available in Montana, not just for a specific river,
you can visit
the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks website.
