Bozeman, Mont.
Montana's Fly Capital
It's a coin toss between Missoula and Bozeman for the title of best flyfishing town in Montana, but because of its proximity to Yellowstone National Park, Bozeman wins by a nose. Since 1970, Bozeman has blossomed from a sleepy railroad and college town into a western-chic hotspot for tele-commuters, artists, entrepreneurs-and fish junkies. But behind every new storefront veneer, that gritty cowboy culture is alive. You don't have to spend millions to buy up a chunk of river because the state's stream-access law allows you to wade within the high-water mark on most streams.
