Tucked between rolling ranchlands and quiet cottonwood groves, the Ruby River flows with a serenity that invites a slower pace. This small, intimate stream offers technical dry fly fishing in a setting that feels far from the modern world. Shallow riffles, deep pools, and undercut banks hide healthy populations of wild browns and rainbows.

The Ruby rewards precision and observation, making each take all the more satisfying. For guests of Healing Waters Lodge, a day on the Ruby is about slowing down, tuning in, and enjoying the quiet rhythm of a truly classic Montana spring creek.
