John Barrett

In 1989 John embarked on a groundbreaking mission: to bring the thrill of fly fishing to the world. His creation, "Fly Fishing the World," became a landmark ESPN series, captivating audiences for over two decades and inspiring countless anglers. From sharing the rod with Hollywood icons to shaping ESPN's outdoor programming, John's dedication to the sport is unparalleled.  A lifelong explorer, John has cast his line in the world's most incredible waters. Yet, after years of global adventures, Montana called him home. His love for the state's legendary rivers runs deep, and his passion for fly fishing burns as brightly as ever. As the Outfitter for the Complete Fly Fisher, John’s knowledge of the sport will benefit all guests that visit Montana each season.
