The Crew
Guides Who Live on the Water
Seven licensed guides. Most of them fish this river on their days off. You’ll get someone who knows where the fish are, not where they were last season.
Ria French
Great Falls native. Former paramedic turned full-time guide. On the Trout Unlimited board for the Missouri River Flyfishers chapter — she fishes this river when she’s not working it.
Colter Day
Lifetime Montana local. Missouri River and Bitterroot specialist. Patient with beginners, pushes experienced anglers to fish better water.
Rain Keating
Guided the Snake, Flathead, and Green rivers before the Missouri got its hooks in him. He calls it home water now. His days off look a lot like his days on.
Military · Fire · EMS · Law Enforcement
A Full Day, at a Different Rate.
Some people don’t take enough days off. Matt built this program for the ones who serve — active and retired military, National Guard, firefighters, search and rescue, law enforcement, and EMTs. A full day on the Missouri, gear, lunch, and shuttle included, at $675.

What Anglers Say
On the Water and After
Rain, snow or sunshine
“Folks I have to tell ya. Lo Mo Outfitting will put you on the fish rain, snow or sunshine. I have been fishing with Matt for almost 10 years. Honestly this fish count is upper teens and mid 20s every time I get in the boat. He will work hard for you and put you on the fish.”
— James L. · Google
Never caught so many trout
“Matt, thanks for an incredible trip on the Missouri River. You know the river very, very well. We've never caught so many trout in one day. You know exactly what fly to use to catch a fish. I've told so many family, friends and co-workers already that you're the guy to call.”
— Brian · Google
He handled it with ease
“Matt took my mom and little brother out for a full day float, upon my recommendation, and had nothing but praise. They are both vegetarian so dietary restrictions can be an issue. Matt navigated the issue with ease. The fish they caught were just the icing on the cake.”
— Rain K. · Google
If you've never tried it
“If you are looking to catch fish on the Missouri River, Matt is your guide. Matt is committed to making sure his customers have a memorable experience on the Missouri River. If you have never tried fly fishing, Matt is an awesome guide to help you learn how.”
— JoAnn M. · Google
On fish all day
“Our trip was absolutely awesome. The guide handled everything from start to finish. We were on fish all day with the right setups, and all we had to do was show up and enjoy it. If you want a stress-free, dialed-in fishing experience, this is it.”
— J. Stone · Google
Booked inside 24 hours
“Matt is amazing, always a great experience, and got us on a float less than 24 hours after asking on a Sunday. Guy is amazing, I wouldn't choose anyone else. Always great fishing.”
— Kasey C. · Google
My first time fly fishing
“I've gone out with Lo Mo Outfitting a few times now and every trip has been a blast. My first time fly fishing was with Matt. He took the time to teach me everything without making it stressful or overwhelming. He is very knowledgeable about the river and works hard all day to put you on fish.”
— Maekayla V. · Google
It made me want to guide
“I had a day on the water with Matt that left me not only hooked on fly fishing but inspired to pursue guiding myself. He can explain trout behavior, hatch cycles, fly selection, and rigging in a way that makes sense on the river right then and there. When I tangled lines or missed a take, he stayed calm and celebrated the small improvements like they were big wins.”
— Andrew O. · Google
He taught while he guided
“Not only did Matt take us on a great trip, put us on some huge fish, and provide professional fly fishing guide services — he also helped educate on the sport and let us experiment with different techniques and flies. It created a great atmosphere to learn and have fun all day.”
— Colby A. · Google
The best of the best
“I've been on a few fly fishing trips with Matt over the years and each time it's been an absolute blast. He knows the river very well and puts us on fish every time. Matt has taught me a ton about fly fishing and how to be successful out there on the river. Booking a trip with Lo Mo Outfitting will not disappoint.”
— Josh A. · Google
Top notch
“Lo Mo Outfitting is top notch. Matt works very hard to be the best and it shows when you're on his boat — from getting your line in the water, talking technique and having great conversation along the way. Highly recommend if you're looking to book a trip.”
— Bryce W. · Google
Learned a lot
“Great experience all around. Matt was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and made the whole trip enjoyable and easy. Learned a lot and had an awesome time on the water. Highly recommend.”

The Outfitter
Matt Mohar
Owner · Lo Mo Outfitting
Born and raised in Helena, Montana. I’ve been fly fishing the Missouri River for more than 20 years and guiding on it for close to ten. This is home water — not a destination I fly into for the season.
I built Lo Mo around guides who feel the same way. You won’t get someone reading the water for the first time. You’ll fish with people who are out here on their days off.
