Quick Details

Wild Horse Island Tour (4 Hours)

$500

Typical gratuity for a professional guide is 20-25% of the total cost of the trip.

Wild Horse Island offers one of the most unique experiences on Flathead Lake—combining a scenic boat ride with the freedom to explore one of Montana’s most beautiful state parks at your own pace.

Once we arrive, you’re free to step off the boat and explore, relax, and take it all in at your own pace.

Exploring Wild Horse Island

Wild Horse Island is the largest island on Flathead Lake and one of the most unique places to explore in Montana. Accessible only by boat, this 2,000+ acre state park features open landscapes, shoreline views, and quiet trails that feel completely different from anywhere else on the lake.

Once we arrive, you’re free to step off the boat and explore at your own pace. Walk the trails, spot wildlife, or simply take in the scenery. Scenic cruising around the island is optional and based on group preference and time.

Watch for wild horses, bighorn sheep, mule deer, and birdlife
Explore hiking trails and open areas across the island
Visit the historic Painted Rocks along the shoreline
Relax and take in the views around the island

No two trips are exactly the same. Conditions, wildlife activity, and your preferences all shape the experience—but the goal is always the same: a relaxed, memorable day on Flathead Lake.

What's Included

Everything you need for a comfortable, enjoyable day on the water is included. As you cruise around Wild Horse Island, your captain shares local insight, history, and highlights along the way, making the experience as informative as it is relaxing.

These guys were amazing!!!  This charter was all about my 12 year old son and these guys delivered.  Originally planned to fish Flathead lake but on Captain Mikes advice we pivoted to another more protected lake due to bad weather conditions that morning. It was still cold and it snowed, but we had the best time!!! Mike and his helper, Rick, couldn’t have been better to get my son hooked into a bunch of salmon and a real prize trout. These guys were the total package of professionalism, enthusiasm, encouragement and fun!!

Thanks Mike and Rick!! We’ll see you again!!

Cheyenne was our first contact with Flathead Fish Finders, and she was very helpful as we planned out our trip and was super patient as we had a lot of questions about the trip and this area of Montana.  Mike was our captain, and he made sure we had a very memorable fishing trip.  Mike reached out the day prior to confirm our trip and answer any questions we had.  We got our fishing licenses online the day prior.

At 8am, we met up at the launch with Mike.  The ride out to the fishing spot was warm and comfortable.  We caught a ton of lake trout, and when we were in between fish, Mike was a lot of fun to talk to. Our kids range in age from 5 to 16, and they had a blast.

Mike was a pro cleaning our keepers on the drive back to the launch.  We kept two trout for dinner, and they turned out delicious.

Can't recommend these guys highly enough: a family business that treated our family to a fantastic day on Flathead Lake.  Well worth the cost of the charter and we will definitely be back.

Josh was awesome. We pulled in some 40 yr old donkeys! Massive!! He did make me rub its belly awhile to make sure it was fine- but I had a moment with the fish. Magical. Let’s go!!!!

Josh knows the lake incredibly well, worked hard all day, and put us on fish from start to finish. Great guy to spend a day on the water with and an excellent guide. If you’re looking to fish Flathead Lake, I can’t recommend Josh enough. Incredible experience and a day I won’t forget.
