The name of the shop is Clark Fork Trout and Tackle. It is a real small operation and open at the owner's whim. I'd give a call first detailing your time of arrival in St Regis to make sure he will be there. Their number is (406) 649-2538. As a back up there is a gift, tackle shop across the street from the Trout and Tackle Shop that also offers shuttle service. You can also check at the grocery store.
A couple of years ago I tried to use the Trout Shop and found them closed on my arrival even though their posted hours stated they should be open and I had called earlier. I used one of the backups mentioned above. (the grocery store I believe). The second day of my drift I saw these guys watching me from the road above. They walked down a very steep embankment to reach the water and called me over. It turned out they were shuttling my car and had locked the keys in it. It pays to carry an extra set with you when use a shuttle service. If I hadn't had the extra set, and they hadn't found me, they were planning on waiting at the take out for my arrival. If you search the archives you will find a trip report detailing the float.

There's a one-man fly shop in St. Regis that does shuttles, provides good info, etc. I've been there in the past but have totally forgotten the name. Anyone know of it? I'd like to contact him ahead of time. It's gotta be the only fly shop in town, given the size of St. Regis. Thanks in advance Gary Meyers Kirkland
