Sky Blue Outfitters has been hosting group trips for over 13 years to such places as Montana, Outer Banks, Idaho, Lake Placid, Saskatchewan, and Labrador.  We do several trips a year to Montana and/or Idaho, and one “bucket list” trip. In 2024 we are going to Saskatchewan, Montana, Idaho, and Texas for redfish. 

Join us and enjoy some relaxing fishing somewhere on a creek, river, lake or surf. We take all the worry out of where to sleep, meals, and guides to hire. We only go first class or we not go at all.

So, scroll down the page to find out more about our hosted trips in 2024.

Lodge Report:

“Definitely the highlights of our 2022 season were the 3 northerns we boated over 50” including one taken on the fly. We also saw many fish over 45” and some of our guests got to the point where they didn’t even want to bother measuring the 40s. Looking forward to the 2023 season”.
