TESTIMONIALS
Had an absolute blast with owner Jeff Lattig on the Missouri! From myself guiding in Colorado and fishing all over, Jeff is one of the nicest, most patient guides out there—and you will learn a ton… The mighty mo really lives up to the hype, and you shouldn’t do it unless you’re with Jeff or one of his guides. The Living Water Crew is top notch and will give you the experience of a lifetime! The best part… Hopping on the oars and watching Jeff fling some string to a few risers!
His knowledge of the area is second to none, his boats and equipment are top notch. I would recommend Jeff and his guide service to any of my friends, family, or other fellow anglers looking for a memorable day.
Living Water guide service was simply incredible. We saw a large variety of fish in the net and the gear was top notch. Jeff even packed a gourmet lunch for us. Many memories were made and Jeff put us on fish almost every cast. I look forward to showing off all of the great pictures he took of the beautiful fish we landed.
Our trip to Montana fishing with Living Water Guide Service and guide Shafter was the best trip we have had in Montana. The hospitality and expert guide service along with the great experience sets Living Water above and beyond others. We were able to fish, laugh, and share great stories with Shafter. Shafter is more than a fishing guide, he makes the fishing experience memorable. I would recommend Shafter and Living Water guide service to anyone wanting to experience fishing in Montana!
A true Montana experience. A day on the water with the Living water crew will not only be an unforgettable experience but it will also make you a better fly fisherman. Jeff and his team of guides worked tirelessly to put us in position to catch fish. The hot shore lunch on the cool Montana day was just perfect. This outfit is hands down the hardest working crew on the river. Well be back !
