Land for Sale in Wise River, Montana
66771 Highway 43, Wise River, MT 59762
Established in 1968, the Complete Fly Fisher has hosted anglers for nearly six decades on one of Montana’s most recognized trout fisheries. The property is situated on the Big Hole River near its confluence with the Wise River, an exceptional setting in the heart of the Big Hole Valley, with immediate access to productive water and a classic Southwest Montana landscape.
The Big Hole serves as the primary fishery, with seasonal hatches, wild trout, and extensive blue-ribbon stretches close at hand. In addition, several of the region’s marquee rivers, including the Beaverhead, Jefferson, and Bitterroot, are within practical driving distance, providing operational flexibility and variety when conditions dictate.
Today, The Complete Fly Fisher operates as a full-service fly-fishing lodge. Guests typically enjoy guided drift boat fishing on the Big Hole and surrounding waters, complemented by on-site lodging, chef-prepared meals, and access to equipment and gear. The current model is designed to be highly turnkey, with staff handling trip logistics so the guest experience remains the focus.
Opportunities of this profile are uncommon: a long-operating lodge with an established market presence in a premier Montana river corridor. With nearly six decades of continuous operation, a loyal global clientele, and five-star reviews across Google and TripAdvisor, the business arrives with an established and highly regarded reputation that is nearly impossible to replicate. Whether a buyer chooses to continue the lodge’s storied fly fishing operations or convert the property into a private luxury compound, the possibilities are as expansive as the Montana landscape itself. For those seeking a turnkey business with deep roots, a proven track record, and an unmatched setting on one of the West’s most celebrated trout rivers, the Complete Fly Fisher stands in a class of its own.
