AUSTIN LOWDER

Guide & Founder

Raised in Billings, Montana, Austin has been a Bozeman based Montana fly fishing guide and outfitter for over 20 years. Truly, he was born to fish. Austin’s sense of adventure and bull dog determination to catch fish take him to the ultimate flywater in search of solitude, beautiful scenery, and of course, elusive fly eating gamefish. Austin is on a short list of Montana fly fishingguides who graduated with a degree in Fish and Wildlife Biology from Montana State University in Bozeman. Austin has dedicated his life to two things — his family (wife, Julie, and three superstar kids) and the pursuit of adventure through fly fishing.
