Front Range Anglers is committed to providing you with the best Colorado fly fishing guides and guided fly fishing experience possible. We have assembled one of the most professional and top notch guide teams in Boulder and on the front range. There are many fly-by-night guide operations out there, but unlike some others, our guides are properly permitted, CPR certified and fully insured. Colorado’s Front Range and the area directly around Boulder offers a wide variety of fish species, excellent angling opportunities, and is best known for incredible and exciting dry fly fishing, making for an action-packed day! From wild Brown Trout in Boulder Creek to gorgeous Cutthroat Trout in the high mountain lakes and streams of Rocky Mountain National Park, our goal is to give you lasting memories of a true rocky mountain fly fishing experience.
Our trips are solely walk/wade. At the shop, you will be properly sized and fitted in your equipment to ensure your comfort. Once we have the equipment fitted and all necessary fishing licenses purchased, the guide will provide transportation to the water. Our guides create a comfortable learning environment for you along with years of fly-fishing and guiding experience to get you onto fish. You will find that our guides are both patient and attentive, especially with younger anglers. A dynamic guide will work hard so that you don’t have too!
