I’m a fly fishing novice that has been relying on my friends’ gear for the last year, and was ready to buy my own stuff.
I came into the shop today and was immediately helped by one of the guys at the desk. Both the guys working there were so incredibly kind and helpful. One even let me take a video of how he set up a dry dropper so I’d have a reference to do it myself. As a woman, and a novice, it makes such a difference to have people help you who are encouraging and don’t make you feel stupid for not knowing all the lingo. Deff coming to this shop for as long as I’m fly fishing!!
Tryston was a fantastic teacher on the river. After winning some fly gear through my work I decided I needed to learn. I decided to hire Tryston as my fly guide and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. He was patient and explained everything very well. He made my first day on the river fun and exciting. Highly recommend him if you want a great guide.
Thanks again Tryston.
Cool shop and everyone there was very helpful! I’m a novice and they helped us with a new setup and no judgement - excited to take a guided trip with them soon. Excellent selection of flies and gear!
If you’re looking for fusion adventure, education and a fun fly fishing experience, I would suggest asking for Trout daddy (aka Tryston). He truly was the best fishing guide around. All gear was provided and the location was insanely gorgeous. It would be fun to do this solo or with family. There were lots of fresh fish to catch and a great guide who will make sure you not only get your bites, but also that you net them. 10/10 would recommend.
Took a guided trip w/ Tristen & Brandon from GFS to Deckers on the South Platte May 2021 - a spot we've fished before but have never had results like this - double-digit totals on the day, including (3) large browns by my 10-yr old son - we killed it! Good dudes with top-notch gear & instruction, a most excellent experience - would highly recommend to anyone interested in netting some nice fish regardless of skill level. Oh - and the shop itself is great as well - knowledgeable staff & lots of nice gear/tools/materials to choose from - and the shark is a nice touch!
