Student Testimonial
I highly recommend the Bighorn River Lodge Guide School for anyone aspiring to become a guide because of Chad’s instruction and mentorship. I also recommend the guide school for anyone who may be thinking of getting a drift boat or wants to seriously improve their fishing skills. Every time I have fished with Chad, he has guided me to a new level. I know I plan to attend again!
I have taken the guide school with Chad two times. The first time was in April 2013 and the second time was in August 2016. I took the course the first time out of curiosity to see what a guide’s life was like and to improve my fly fishing skills. I definitely improved my fishing skills under Chad’s instruction and fell hopelessly in love with drift boats and the Bighorn. I arranged to attend the guide school with Chad again in 2016 because I wanted his evaluation of how much I had improved in my fishing and rowing skills. Chad is without a doubt one of the best rowing and fly fishing guides I have ever fished with. More importantly he is a fantastic instructor and will not cut you any slack.
I’ve been to Cary and David’s Lodge three times since they took ownership and I gladly testify to the great meals and accommodations.
