GUIDE OF THE DAY
Vance Jensen
Born and raised in the NW, Vance has been a lover of all things outdoors his whole life. Moving to Summit County in the mid 90's, he is a wealth of knowledge of our waters to get you on to fish. Vance is an incredible all around guide and if you are interested in two hand set ups or education, this is your guy! If Vance isn't on the water, you might see him ripping around on all the dirt bike trails our mountain area has to offer.

When a guide tells you the caddis came off at four yesterday on the Blue, it's because they were standing in the river watching it happen. That's the kind of shop we've always wanted to be.
