New outdoorsman moving to NW Montana

[Bullet7]

Hello everyone ! I am an avid outdoorsman from Georgia that will be moving to the Kalispell area in 2 weeks permanently. I am in the process of purchasing an Insurance Agency in the area and cannot wait to reside in my dream state to live.
I see that I am unable to acquire hunting and fishing permits until 180 days after establishing residency. Are there any options at least as far as fishing is concerned to start right away ? Maybe I would still have to purchase a non resident fishing permit ?
Thanks!
Bob

Welcome aboard!

Yeah you can get a non resident fishing license and start fishing right away.

Welcome from SW MT. Congrats on the move. Hide your husky if you got one…

Welcome aboard.

You can get upland as a NR for a reasonable price as well. Lots of ruffed & blues in the flathead, and you have some roosters a bit to the south.

What your insurance company? Best success in your move.

Welcome to the last best place. Once you get settled stop into F&G regional office and get all your questions answered.

NR bear tags and wolf tags are cheap and OTC as well. I'd 100% grab a bear tag and save a calf or two!

Welcome to the Kalispell area. Other options for fishing would be Glacier Park, or the Indian reservations.

Will you write RV insurance? I am looking for a new company to insure our Airstream that we store in Bozeman.
