This week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast your host Downrigger Dale talks to Chris Mischke of Big Sky Fishing Charters about learning from his fishing guides who are located all across Montana. And when we say all across Montana, we mean it! When you listen you will learn about about where and how to fish in northwest Montana in lakes like Flathead, the Thompson Chain of Lakes, the Flathead River, and list goes on and on. It does not stop in Northwest Montana though; Big Sky Fishing Charters has guides in West Yellowstone and even up in Northeast Montana on the mighty Missouri River, Fort Peck Reservoir and beyond! The idea behind this podcast is to get out of your comfort zone now and then and learn some new waterways and fish for species you may not get a chance to fish for very often. Well, like HUGE Lake Superior Whitefish, giant Mackinaw, big ole Smallmouth Bass, Monster Northern Pike, and yes even Kokanee and King Salmon, to name a few. Now you may be thinking wait a minute who has time to figure out new waterways and find the fish in them? Glad you asked. That’s where Chris and his guides come in. They will show you all the basics, so you are ready if you want to head out on your own. When you listen you will hear about how they find those huge Lake Superior Whitefish, what to use and the fact that they fight like hell. Oh, and they taste even better than they fight. You will also learn about targeting giant Mackinaw and some awesome Smallies on Flathead Lake. The beauty is when you listen to this podcast you will learn that Montana has so much more to see and to catch then you may have known even if you have lived here your entire life!
