Front Range Anglers

Our party of six had an outstanding time on our 1/2 day trip with guides Christian and Jacob. We were all novices and the guides were helpful with getting us started on basic techniques. There was plenty of communication prior to the trip from the lead guide so any questions we had were answered thoroughly and we felt confident about the trip by the time we met up on the day of. We caught a total of six fish so to these first-timers that was a successful day! They took us to two different spots and kept us fishing even though the weather did not cooperate with us for the first hour or so. They would scout out "good" spots and move us around a bit when they thought it would be helpful. They constantly rotated around to each person to check on us. They described the habitat and behavior of the fish we were looking for and if I do go fly fishing again I feel I have a good basic knowledge of the sport. All four adults in the group agreed it was a fun trip and a good vacation adventure!
I would like to add we had a young teen and a 7-y/o with us and the guides were very attentive and helpful with the youngsters in the group.

Front Range Anglers helped me arranging a couple of fly fishing tours, and both trips were amazing! Tim, our guide, was very knowledgeable and kind. My wife and I were able to explore Boulder area as we planned for the trip with the help of Tim. Thank you Tim and Front Range Anglers!

8/5/20 Bobby put us on the fish quick, great guide service and full service fly shop. Worth the money.
8/6/23 Brenden was very helpful on our Boulder Creek fishing trip, full of knowledge and helped us land a few fish. I learned a new skill, the Bow and Arrow cast, caught a fish under a large Boulder cavern- super cool. Highly recommend Front Range Anglers. Worth every penny as I gather more knowledge for this lifetime learning experience.

Did a half day of flyfishing here, we had Matt, Dave, and Dawson, everyone was so wonderful. We had beginners to intermediate, and they were accommodating, fun, and really knowledgeable! Thanks for an amazing day!

My new favorite fly shop. Great selection of quality gear at competitive prices. Staff is eager to help and super friendly.

Great shop! I went in looking for a new nymph rod, FRA is one of the few T&T dealers in CO. Antonio (the owner) took time show me numerous rods and compare the other brands they carry. Their staff is knowledgeable and really seemed to enjoy talking about fishing. Highly recommended.

The Christmas island trip was a blast! Thank you Adam, Jonh, Rob and the rest of the team for all that you did to make my first saltwater fishing trip as memorable as it could possibly be! Adam and John, you were great host on the trip and couldn’t have been more helpful.

My guide Daniel was fun and knowledgeable! He did a great job of finding great spots to fish in — he knew just what flies would work! I had a great time and caught a beautiful brown trout!

Austin was the absolute best this weekend! He was super skilled, patient, and fun to learn from! If you're looking for someone passionate about fishing to guide you, I highly recommend!!

We have just returned from a wonderful family holiday in Boulder and spending a day on the river with Anthony & Brendan was a total highlight. Top notch guides who fit in seamlessly with our family, they even facilitated an opportunity for our son (on his first occasion fly fishing) to get a Colorado Grand Slam. Amazing!

Thanks for a wonderful experience and we will happily recommend you to anyone who will listen!

An awesome trip! I have caught tons of trout in PA, but never one over 15”. Plus, I could not throw a fly rod to save my life. Dawson had me throwing wet and dry flies in no time. He netted (and released!) 13 Rainbow’s between 14”-20”, most 16”-18”. I also lost about 4 more, broke a big boy off (my fault) and missed many more good hits. I highly recommend Front Range Anglers and My guide Dawson for any fishing in CO!!! Thanks guys!!

AWESOME!!! My son and I were in from Chicago and had a great time on our guided fishing tour with Front Range Anglers. Reice was our guide and he was incredible. We were novices and Reice took the time to educate us and made it an incredibly fun experience. We would highly recommend this company and Reice as a guide.

Impressive selection of flies, rods, and other fly fishing gear with knowledgeable folks behind the counter. We went out for a guided trip with John Brown and learned a ton about competitive nymphing and dry fly fishing tactics. These guys are legit!

I gifted my dad a half day fishing for an early Father’s Day gift this year. It was our first time fly fishing and it did not disappoint! Our guide, Christian, had everything we needed and helped us have the most enjoyable experience while also teaching the basics of fly fishing. He was also very patient with us, even when I hooked a bunch of rocks & sticks. It was a wonderful day and the whole team at Front Range Anglers made it so easy from start to finish. If I could give them 10 stars I would!!

We had an AMAZING day fishing! Our guide, Tyler, was very patient and a great teacher. We both caught about 14 fish total and had many more nibbles! Tyler was very knowledgeable with the River, the Fish and the 'flies'. The staff were great with their customer service and communications, which was a great help as we booked from out of state. It was a true "bucket list" experience. I highly recommend this Fly Fishing Guide company when you are in Boulder, CO!

Jackson was the perfect fit to accompany my 4 1/2-year-old Teddy on his first fly-fishing outing. Patient and kind. Explaining and listening to a myriad of questions. And we caught fish! Several in the net. Fun fun. The other guide John was superb too. Highly recommend both. Kudos to both. Thanks.

My wife and I had an excellent experience from start to finish on Oct 23, 2021. The initial call was super helpful, the onboarding process was simple, and we were impressed with our guide, Luke, from the start. We were surprised to get a consultative approach asking about how to make our trip the best it could be.

The full day trip was both fun and educational. We hit three different environments and learned countless tips. We must have caught 12-14 fish including Rainbow and Brown Trout.

This was my wife's first catch in her life and fly fishing had been on her bucket list for years!

Great trip! Ask for Reice!

We did the happy hour trip option and enjoyed 2 hours in the Boulder Canyon learning to fly fish. Reice hit the perfect balance of teaching and making sure we had a great time. Highly recommend.

Great day on the water with Charlie from Front Range Anglers! Very knowledgeable on finding fish on Boulder Creek. Did a great job helping my son having one his best days on the river, highly recommend Charlie as a guide on any water, good guy!!

3 guys first time fly fishing. Our guide was Matt Decker. Matt was great - super friendly and personable. Very knowledgeable about fly fishing and was very patient with us as we learned the technique. Took us to several different spots in beautiful Rocky Mountain National Park. Shifted his attention to make sure each one of us got at last one fish. Did the full day and was totally worth it, definitely recommend.
