Please give us at least 48 hours if you need to cancel your guide trip.

We usually don’t take deposits for guide trips and usually don’t charge people until they go.  However, if you book a trip on short notice within 48 hours, we will charge you at the time of your booking.  We do charge a 50% non-refundable deposit for group trips that require 3 guides or more.

Like many shops now, we don’t sell fishing licenses.  Fishing licenses have been available online for many years from Colorado Parks and Wildlife.  Please purchase your license online before your guided trip.  You can screenshot the confirmation at the end of the process or save the e-mail from CPW as verification.  If absolutely necessary we can help you buy online the day of your trip in the shop, but the process does require a fair amount of your personal information, so you can keep that private (and save a lot of time getting to the water) by purchasing yourself online.

We are required to verify that you have your fishing license before you head out with your guide, and you should keep your license or proof of license with you on paper or on your phone in case you are checked by a CPW officer.

We do include any/ all needed gear on guided trips.  If you want to bring your own rod/waders, etc, you are welcome to.  If you are going on a float trip, please minimize extra gear due to limited space.  And you won’t need to bring your fishing vest on a float trip since life jackets are required.

Soft drinks and water are supplied on all guide trips.  Please bring your own lunch or snacks if you are fishing for more than a half day.  If you want to have the guide pick up lunch for you, we can add lunch to any of our guided trips for $20 per person.

Rain often makes for good fishing, and we don’t cancel guided trips because of rain unless it is severe and hazardous.
