Cast Hope Guides
Montana Region
Ryan Johnston - Montana Director
Ryan Johnston has had the privilege of guiding anglers since 2003. Over the years, he has witnessed how fly fishing can foster meaningful relationships and create lasting bonds between people. Time spent together on the river, surrounded by beautiful landscapes, flowing water, and the excitement of pursuing fish, creates a unique opportunity for connection and shared memories.
Ryan’s father taught him that each day on the water is a gift from God and that we should be grateful for the freedom to pursue the passions we love. For Ryan, that passion has always been fly fishing and sharing it with others.
Through that passion, Ryan created Cast Hope—a way to share the joy, connection, and life lessons that fly fishing provides. His dream is to deepen relationships, teach the sport of fly fishing, and inspire the next generation to become stewards of the outdoors.
