We always recommend that you let your guide have as much leeway as possible in picking the water to be fished because they will know the areas where the best fishing conditions can be found. We have legal permits or official permission to guide on the South Platte River at the Charlie Meyers State Wildlife Area (aka- the Dream Stream), the Tomahawk State Wildlife Area & The Deckers/Trumbull area. We also have a license to guide on the Blue River in the beautiful town of Silverthorne, Colorado. We guide on a small section of The Arkansas in the town of Pueblo, Colorado & on Clear Creek in the Front Range just outside of Denver, Colorado.
PRIVATE WATER
Private Water Option | 1 Angler | 100
Any of our trips or classes (except the Guided Carp Trip) can be done on beautiful private Rocky Mountain waters where the fish are bigger & much less spooky, and the views can be unrivalled.

SHUTTLE SERVICES
We have found that our fly fishing guide trip clients are much more comfortable in their own cars. Shuttle services for our fly fishing guide trips are intended for visitors to our beautiful Rocky Mountains. Specifically, they are for clients who are staying at hotels and do not have their own cars. We make very special arrangements with specific guides.
APPROPRIATE AGES
Our trips (and gear) are most appropriate for children 14 and up and adults.
GRATUITY
Rewarding a guide or instructor for a great fly fishing guide trip or class is a tradition as old as the craft of guiding itself. When a guide or instructor has done a good job a good tip is given; When they done a great job, a great tip is given. Gratuities are not included in our fees for the simple reason that the tip is the way YOU get to tell your guide exactly what a good or great job you think they did. Rocky Mountain Flyfishing Guides will never do just an “OK” job.Tipping is often confusing – this article by Marshall Cutchin of MidCurrent is a great editorial & guideline on the subject.
FISHING LICENSES
A VALID COLORADO FISHING LICENSE OR T.A.N.* IS MANDATORY IN COLORADO, EVEN ON SOME PRIVATE WATER.
* A “T.A.N.” or Temporary Authorization Number, can be issued instantly for all Colorado Fishing licenses purchased online at the CDOW Website.
