Sarah Cornette

A Spirit of Adventure

From the Gulf Coast to the mountains of Montana, Sarah Cornette's passion for exploring waterways has defined her life. After falling in love with Montana's wild beauty, she became a seasoned guide on iconic rivers like the Middle Fork and Main Salmon. Inspired by her travels throughout Central and South America, she earned degrees in Spanish and Education, sharing her love of language with students. But the call of the river was strong – she balanced teaching with guiding fly fishing trips and managing a guest ranch on the legendary Blackfoot. Even winters took her south, managing an island estate in Patagonia. Now, Sarah brings her adventurous spirit, diverse skills, and warm hospitality to The Complete Fly Fisher, ensuring your Montana adventure is truly unforgettable.
