It's no secret that Montana is renowned for its numerous recreational opportunities.

Arguably, one of the most popular summertime activities is getting out and floating on the river.

You can do this in multiple ways, whether it be kayaking, paddle boarding, whitewater rafting, or even floating in a drift boat, hoping to snag an epic fish.

But one thing is for sure: the secret is out regarding water recreation in Montana, and managing the traffic has become a priority of the Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks Department.

If you've spent any amount of time on the water recently, you know that fishing accesses, boat ramps, and just about every river in Montana are swamped with people.
