Looking for Madison/Gallatin advice

[leewan]

Well the week of Sertember 14th I get to come out to Bozeman area for the first time to fish the Madison and the Gallatin. I have done some research but would like some local input, should I concentrate on the upper or lower sections of each river, I will be wading . Any go to flies for this time of the year?

Also I'm one of those retired guys traveling by myself on a budget so any suggestions on a lower rate place to stay along either river would be appreciated, or should I stay in Bozeman?

I am really looking forward to visiting your area and fishing these famous rivers.

thanks
