Rocky Mountain Anglers

Bought a ½ day fly fishing guide trip for my boyfriend and I who are both total noobs.
It was so fun! The guides (tanner and Logan) were fantastic! I highly recommend giving this a try if you haven’t. They made it so easy and fun and even though I spent the whole first part catching rocks and trees and everything else they were really patient.
Every person that I felt with at the shop were helpful and welcoming. We will defiantly be trying this again when the weather warms up some.

I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! I love this place so much that I don’t know where to start. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely passionate. They offer a great selection of gear and also host numerous fly fishing related events, both on and off location. Whether a beginner or expert, this is the perfect shop for all your fly fishing needs!

Looks like a fun shop. I am new to fly fishing, but it seems they have everything I might need. And they sell fishing licenses, have workshops and can set you up with a guide.

I have been fishing the front range (mostly Boulder County) for the last 15 years. I really did not go into many fly fishing shops early on
Over the last couple of years I have been spending more time at RMA. My family and I participated in the Boulder Creek Cleanup this summer that RMA sponsored. What a blast we had. My family is just getting into fly fishing with me and RMA has been very supportive with instruction.
Just a great group of folks, down to earth, friendly, knowledgeable, and they like to drink local beer (A+ in my book)
check them out!

Honest, dependable, great service. I really appreciate that the people who work here take the time to help me succeed in catching. Randy’s enthusiasm and expertise are second to none. A small business that genuinely cares about their customer’s experience and success. Rock on!

The ownership of this great shop has changed recently and that will likely show in the upcoming reviews. Randy, the new owner, is doing a great job at building a good team of people with a great attitude.
I should disclose, I own a brand that sells to their shop. But, I’m also super picky about who I work with and would not have started a relationship with them if I didn’t feel they had outstanding service and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s a great shop doing a lot for fly-​fishing in the area with clean-​ups and clinics and with a good vibe.

Being a lady that has recently picked up fly fishing I must say fishing shops are a bit intimidating. Having said that Randy and his staff over at RMA are amazing! From my first interaction (picking up my fishing license last fall — cash only for the licenses folks) I was delighted at how friendly, courteous, and approachable the staff are. Of note, I haven’t received this type of enthusiasm or respect at other local fishing stores.
In the past couple of months I have been fortunate enough to take part in their community events, some which have been created specifically for fisherwomen which is just awesome (many were followed by a yummy BBQ).
Wide selection of flys, gear, books, and even women’s specific waders and clothing (which I was happy to see).
If you are curious about fishing, or are already someone who enjoys fishing I highly recommend going to RMA for all of your fishing needs.
Definitely sign-​up to receive their newsletter (on their website). There’s a book signing by local author/​fisherman J. Gierach this Friday and a Gear Swap on May 3^rd.
** After reading some of the other reviews it may also be worth mentioning that my
understanding is that there has been a change in ownership in the past few
years.

I really like this place. The staff is very knowledgeable and willing to tell you local spots to fish (unlike many other fly shops I’ve been to.) They give free fly tying classes on Saturday mornings. Its my go to spot in Boulder, I live less then a block from the Boulder creek.

CROOKS!!! Do NOT buy anything from these people. I had spent thousands of dollars on an order with them first their customer service is horrible and they are very rude they just want your money and that’s it. I was scanned into placing a large order by check when I received the order they sent me all the wrong stuff everything that I got and was supposed to get I had over paid they could have at least sent me the rite stuff. When I got the wrong stuff the value of the thigs they sent were less than the value of the items I paid for they didn’t want to bother fixing it as it was clear they did it on purpose to make it worse they told me to send some items back so they could do some refund or exchange and I sent the items back and they NEvER refunded my money! So I was scammed out of more money. I called week after week day after day and they kept giving me the run around. For high paying customers this is not the service that should be given. For any customer this is unacceptable for any business. I would never treat my customers as they do nor scam them out of money. These people are rude and will take you for anything they can. Do yourself a favor and do not order or buy anything from these people.

I understand that the feather industry has gone totally crazy and that flyfishers are more the irritated with the beauty industry. We paid extremely high prices for what we thought was a much better product than what we recieved and felt misled.
I spent thousands with Rocky Mountian Angles and felt that the customer service was terrible. When I asked to have there address emailed to me they told me they didn’t have time, this is after spending $ 3,700 with there company. Wow, really.
If your looking to buy feathers from this store be careful. There is much more disapointing things that came into play that I don’t want to bore you with. These are the worst feathers I have ever puchased at the highest prices…
I have done buisness with people all over the U. S and have never written a review or been so disapointed like this. Actually my experiences have been amazing and I’ve worked and continued to work with some great people. I am a buisness owner and would never treat a potential customer this way.

I should preface this review by saying that I’ve never been fishing. Of any kind. The closest I’ve come is pawing at Garibaldi in La Jolla, CA while snorkeling and trying to catch the fish at PetCo as a child.
That said, this place is awesome. I’ve been in here a few times, but this week I came in with my husband to acquire a fishing license and finally learn how to catch these trout, which have been mocking me from their relative safety in the local streams and creeks. It was about 10 minutes before closing time and the place was packed for some event that I am unclear on. Instead of shooing us out, the guy behind the counter invited us to stay for free beer and food! Lots of awesome people and conversation. We came back the next day and the place was full of dogs, and a mother and her sons returning from a fly fishing trip. We got our licenses and the atmosphere at this place has definitely inspired me to get more into the hobby.

This shop is a little off the beaten path, but well worth going out of the way. They have a great selection of gear and clothing; but better, the staff is friendly and experienced and helpful. Their recommendations for places to fish (especially if you aren’t a local) are practical and from experience. They tend to be on top of hatches within the state; I frequently stop here on the way to distant rivers, because I’ve learned to trust them.
You can buy flies in a number of places in town; but you can trust the staff here to help you select flies, or a place to fish. There are a LOT of trout within a short drive!
