I'll take issue - Michigan not Montana? - but here's the link:

More proof that the trout fishing sucks in Wisconsin. Don't go there.

Well, I've fished Michigan quite a few times and have enjoyed and caught fish. Howsomever, having made only one trip to Alaska, can tell you I've never seen anything close to it - salmon, dolly varden, cut throat trout - I've had to go sit on the river bank and just rest my arms from the riggors of catching them!

Rod shootouts, editors pick, readers picks, best of show awards and best states, countries, planets to fly fish.
I guess this is why when you walk into Baskin & Robin's they ask what you'd like and not, " Can I get you what the last customer ordered. "

Best, Dave

This is awesome.... everyone go fish Michigan this summer!!!....

[FishnDave]

Since Iowa didn't even earn an "honorable mention" or "also ran" status...do not under ANY circumstances go there to fish. It would be an exercise in absolute futility.

And as Betty would say...

"There are no trout in the Black Hills of South Dakota." Pretty sure that's why it didn't make the list!

[EdD]

One of the guys from Michigan has obviously read Betty's playbook and posted that there is no fly fishing in Michigan.

BTW, there ain't no fish in Tennessee, neither...

Michigan IS a magnificent place for fly fishing of all kinds and the northern woods are gorgeous, but I'd still choose the scenery in some of those western locales any day.

I was happy to see that the author of this article correctly determined that South Carolina has no fish that are worthy of the serious fisherman's effort including that wild stretch of the Chattooga river featured in the movie, Deliverance. Be sure to stay away from there. All you ever see up there are a bunch of knuckle-dragging, man-raping neanderthals. No trout either! Also, no redears, brim, LMB, stripers, wipers or walleyes. I'm moving to Michigan, ASAP. 8T
