This Colorado native has made a living guiding, instructing, and managing in the fly-fishing industry for the past fifteen years. Learning at age ten under the watchful eye of his grandfather he found success that would eventually steer his life in the direction of clear riffles and pools promising the chance of a hungry trout. Rob began his angling career in earnest guiding the small streams of Rocky Mountain National Park and Lower Big Thompson drainage in 1994. Since then he has had the fortune of managing and guiding for outfits in Colorado's Roaring Fork Valley and Alaska's Bristol Bay. For the past six years Rob has been working on Colorado's front range in Boulder, where he currently manages and runs guide operations at Front Range Anglers. Rob is a current member of Fly Fishing Team USA as well as a fly designer for Solitude Fly Company.
