THE LEAD GUIDE

Elias James

Founder & Lead Outfitter

Elias grew up in the shadow of the Absaroka Mountains, learning to read the Yellowstone River before he could drive. With over twenty years on the water, his guiding is built on deep technical knowledge and a simple belief: the best days aren't just about the count, but the quality of the connection to the wild.

Guiding Principle

“Respect the run, love the hatch, and always keep the sticks moving so your clients stay in the game.”

MEET THE GUIDES

Elias Sterling

A master of the technical tailwaters, Caleb knows every rock and riffle in the park. His incredible patience with beginners and deep knowledge of hatch cycles make him a client favorite for those chasing the perfect dry fly take.
