COLORADO FLY FISHING SHOP
Since 1988 The Blue Quill Angler has served the Denver/Evergreen, Colorado fly fishing community through our historical fly shop in Evergreen, Colorado. Our fly shop is located in an octagonal log barn that is actually a recognized historic landmark. While we are admittedly biased, it is frankly the coolest fly shop around — filled to the brim with a wide selection of quality merchandise.
Our huge backyard, when not filled with our local elk herd, lets you test drive that new fly rod before you decide to make your purchase.As special as our location and facility are, it is our friendly, experienced shop staff that truly separates us from our competition. They are 100% passionate about fly fishing and love nothing more than to share their passion and experience with our customers. Our staff are not only here to serve our walk-in customers, they are also a phone call away from anyone shopping in our online store that has any questions or needs assistance.
COLORADO GUIDED FLY FISHING TRIPS
Let us help you make the most of your day, whether you are just beginning to explore the wonderful world of fly fishing, or you are a seasoned veteran who wants to try a new technique or location. We offer a full range of fishing locations for Full or Half Day trips plus we offer Float trips and Stillwater trips to the best locations in the state.
We take pride in our experienced, legendary and passionate guide staff.
