WOT 243: Alex Emery - Part 1. Tactics for Tackling Spring Run Off on Freestones

May 07, 2025

In this episode we WadeOutThere for Part 1 of our conversation with Alex Emory, from Livingston, Montana. Alex started fly fishing as a child with his father in New Jersey and continued during school at West Virginia University, becoming involved with the fly fishing club as well.

After college, Alex’s search to continue his passion for fly fishing, and build a life and career connected to the outdoors brought him to Sweetwater Travel Company Guide School, in Livingston, Montana, where he has been guiding on the Yellowstone River and surrounding area for over eight years. Alex has been a guest on the podcast before. Since the last time we talked, he's started his own outfitter, Livingston Trout Guides.

We discuss fly fishing before, during, and after spring run off on the Yellowstone River and freestone rivers in general.
