Great Gallatin Guide: John Sniscak

John Sniscak: Defending champion of the Great Gallatin Guide title!

Wanna have a good time, support river conservation, AND catch fish? This is your man! John Sniscak is an 18 veteran of the guiding profession. All of that time has been spent teaching people how to fish for trout on the waters of southwest Montana and Yellowstone National Park. His willingness and ability to use any and all techniques and ideas that he's learned over the years to make people's fishing trips fun makes him jump out from the school of Big Sky guides. He lives in the community with his wife Sandi, stepson Nikoli, and dog Zeus. He likes to play hockey, camp, fish, and ski in his free time.

"There aren't very many rivers anywhere in the world--like the Gallatin--that have such excellent fishing along their entire length, and the length being so vast ... and the fishing is so accessible to everybody. Not only that, but the variety and stark differences of the Gallatin's character as it moves along is second to none." John Sniscak on the Gallatin River
