What a wonderful Saturday to fish on the Poudre Jake was superb in every aspect. It was the first time to fly fish for both my daughter and I It was magical to be in the river like that. I felt safe and secure with the experience. It was relaxing and exciting at the same time Excellent! 5 stars for St Peter's Flyfishing. Our guide even gave me his cool cap he bought at St Peters : ) read more

Guys there were very knowledgeable, great selection of just about anything fly fishing related and not horribly priced! Inside was beautiful with rich woods , clean glass shelving and not all cluttered. Smelled clean and was very well kept! They also had a great sales rack outside with sweet prices!! read more

Loved my interaction with this shop! I called them a week ago from another country to ask if they could hold a pair of boots for me until I returned a week later. They were over the top accommodating. Also when I called today to verify that they still had them the gentleman was instantly familiar with my dealings and confirmed with me instantly! Couldn't be happier! Thank you so much!!!! read more

I'm an out of towner that works in the fly fishing industry. While visiting this humble, but absolutely loaded, fly shop i had a great experience with Cullin (sorry if I misspelled it, bud!) My wife and fellow angler had a blast talking with him about not only local fishing but the business in general. We come out here 1 or 2x a year, but you bet I'll be booking with these guys for a little something! Killer shop guys, great work. read more

Awesome store!! All the guys there were very knowledgeable on what was biting and locations for a quick feel of RM fly fishing!!

Absolutely love everything about this place! It's my second year stopping in for supplies and souvenirs. It's in a beautiful old building downtown to start with. They have about anything that I can think of for a fly fishing trip. They also have a nice selection of books, clothing and hats. The best part is the staff. They are very personable and professional. They actually talk to you and want to know about you, not just try to sell you things. I will always stop every chance I get to go there! read more

Two fly fishing trips in less than a week and my second and third time fly fishing, Fly Fishing Master Josh and I headed first to La Cache Poudre in the Poudre Canyon full day wading. He taught me the basics of fly fishing. Yes I caught so many, trout I lost count!!! Our next trip was a float on the North Platte, Gray Reef section, near Alcova WY. Again Josh's knowledge of the river and flying fishing helped me catch a 20+, the others were in the 15-19 and one baby. Both trips were absolutely a blast. Shoutout to JOSH!!! I'll call again when I return next year. All the best!! Happy guiding and I hope everyone lands a lasting smile for these memories. read more

Great selection Super helpful service Very knowledgeable Been in shops all over the western US. This one is special. read more

Xander from St. Petes Fly Shop did an amazing job guiding for my wife an i in the RMNP. He not only gave us exactly what we had asked for (Beautiful surroundings, animals, the mountains) we also caught beautiful native browns in the Big Thompson River. This was the first time my wife fly fished other than two previous lessons i gave her and she loved her time on the river, and out fished me. The fly shop has everything you need to be successful. Cant wait until our next adventure next year. St. Petes will be with us on that one too. thank you for everything. Best regard. Rick read more

Excellent staff! The employees here were extremely helpful. A friend took me here as a treat while I was visiting her and her family. I had never been fly-fishing before and didn't have a clue as to what I was doing. No worries....everyone at this shop made sure we were set up right. Our guide was Ryan and he was nothing short of excellent! He was very enthusiastic and made sure we had a great time! Highly recommended! read more

I'm convinced that an old house makes the best fly shop after visiting St. Peter's Fly Shop. There were ample displays of equipment and apparel throughout without the place feeling cramped/crowded. I wish for the life of me I could remember the name of the guy that helped me, but I cannot. All that I know was that he was super upbeat, extremely helpful, and saved me a few bucks on my fishing license after asking me some questions on how long I was staying. I will be back, as this definitely won't be my last visit to Fort Collins or St. Peter's Fly Shop! read more

Epic fly shop. Not only did they engage with my skill level of fly fishing but they showed me everything I could need with no pressure to buy. They were super talkative and helpful making my Colorado fly fishing experience epic read more

First class place. We did a one day class on Poudre - crash course to learn everything we could..Even caught a nice rainbow. Was pleasantly suprised to have two tour guides - one for each of us. They had lunch for us (we got to choose our favorite bagel sandwitch from Gib's) and they drove us out there. All equipment came with the class; we paid extra for the lures. Great way to check out quality gear as well. read more

We came from Austin, Texas to try some fly fishing and this was the first place we walked in to when we arrived in Fort Collins. The shop is neat and well stocked with excellent gear, and the people could not have been more friendly or helpful. We went out with a guide the next day and had a great day of fishing on the Poudre river just outside of town. If you notice a difference in quality of fishing gear, this is the place to be. You can arrange fishing guides and lessons through this shop. The folks here are really enthusiastic about fishing; a very fun experience here! read more

This has to be one of the coolest fly shops I have ever visited. It's in a historic house located in old town, Fort Collins. From the moment we arrived they were super friendly. They have everything you could need for Fly fishing. Keep up the great work guys. read more

Booked a full day guide trip with Josh and can't say enough good things about him. He helped my wife catch fish and dial in her casting while setting me up on spots that consistently held fish. Lost count of how many to hand and equally as many on "long range release". If you're looking for a great day on the poudre ask for him. read more

Fly Fishers: My daughter and I had a wonderful float trip on the N. Platte River with Ryan on 3/20/22. Ryan made the trip one of the most fun and memorable trip with my daughter with his patience, guidance and fantastic personality. It was my daughter's first fly fishing float and with Ryan's help, she's now a fly fishing addict. I live in the Kansas City Area and my daughter lives in FT. Collins and hopefully we'll be enjoying the great services of ST. Peter's Fly Shop and Ryan many more times in the future. read more

Always great customer service! With every purchase I receive expert advice on where to go and what to use. This guys make me a better fisherman! read more

July 03, 2018 Fantastic day of fishing on the Cache La Poudre River with my guide Kyle Stack from St. Peter's Fly Shop in "Old Town" Fort Collins, Co. I had fish on most of the day with Kyle helping me become a better fly fisherman. St. Peter's includes everything for the day. Boots, waders, rod, flies, water, plus a great lunch on the river. Kyle knew the river, water flows and where the fish most likely would be found. I would recommend anyone wanting to catch fish in Colorado to make a point to have St. Peter's Guides take you out on the Poudre River. Marshall Long Fort Myers, Florida read more

If you are looking for anything fly fishing related in Northern Colorado this is your place. They have anything you may need to get outfitted for a day on the river. They have the a top notch guide service, i can personally vouch for 3 different guides we have used (Jason, Neil and Joel). They all put us on fish all day. It really seems everyone who works there truly loves what they do. I cannot recommend this place enough. read more

Great experience with my son and his friend. Jason was our guide. He was professional and friendly. He was patient and helped the kids. We did a full day and left at 9am and returned by 4pm. The day was beautiful as it wasn't too hot. We caught a total of 5 fish. I highly recommend. read more

St Peter's Fly Shop - Outdoor Gear Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

St. Peters is one of the dopest fly shops that I have ever been to. They have a fantastic selection of quality flies, tying materials, and equipment. The customer service is fantastic. The guys are always super helpful and friendly. The shop itself is in this old school looking house with different rooms selling different stuff. Fly fishing in my opinion is an expensive hobby, so don't expect to find anything different here but the prices are on point with anywhere else. The equipment is generally higher end stuff, think Simms, Patagonia, Howler Bros but thats because its a top notch shop. read more

I respect a good fly shop, but I truly love a great fly shop. St. Pete's is a great fly shop. I grew up in Colorado, which has a glut of fly shops. After moving to California...more of a dearth. It's refreshing to walk into a place like St. Pete's. It's staffed by good people who are stoked on fly fishing. Sometimes people in the fly fishing industry get weirdly haughty. St. Pete's understands that fly fishing is a good time. They want you to have a good time, and they put that ahead of any misplaced sense of ego. Whether you want to start fly fishing or consider yourself a seasoned veteran, stop by St. Pete's. They get it, and they're worth supporting. read more

I'm from out of state with a daughter living in the Fort Collins area. I've been to the shop on Harmony Rd. quite a few times while visiting her. I can honestly say the employees there are the friendliest and most knowledgeable I've come across. Where I live some fly shops have a reputation for being a little "elitest." Not here. The guys at St. Pete's have given me solid information and always help me find my way around the great rivers in the area. The selection of items/products are all top quality. They even had waders in stock in my size, which is not an easy chore (large, long, size 12-13 foot). If you're in the Fort Collins area and are looking for a great fly shop, this is it. read more

The shop just exudes atmosphere- residing in an historic large house right in old town Fort Collins. Their selection of gear, flies and expertise are all amazing. Everyone there is passionate about fishing and love to talk shop. Their rental gear was top notch, and their selection of flies was awesome. As good as the shop and service were, the guided tour was even better. We booked a full day, guided fishing trip through St. Pete's to the Cache La Poudre river for my family, including 10 y/o son (his first fly fishing trip). Our guide, Joel, was great- informative, patient, and very insightful- he worked with each of us on technique and pointed us to some awesome fishing. In particular, he spent time focused on teaching and guiding my son- he turned a great day into a true highlight. We caught many fish, and made many more memories. read more

Great help for a beginner! Lots of fish and instruction was great.

Just stopped at the Old Town location today. What a great shop! Full of knowledgeable associates that were so helpful. They spoke my husband's language- advanced fly fishing- but didn't talk down to me, a beginner. Shop has a super selection of the best quality rods, reels, apparel, fly tying supplies, and guide books. Can't wait to go back! read more

My brother and I just met up in Fort Collins and we booked a guide trip with St Peter's. Our guide was Connor Murphy and he did a terrific job. It was our first time fly fishing so he had to teach us everything. He was incredibly passionate about fishing and sharing knowledge. He was a great teacher and we had a fantastic time out on the Poudre River. The equipment from St Peter's (waders, boots, rods) was also high quality and in great condition. Highly recommend St Peter's for a fly fishing trip! read more

Google says they open at 10am. Here I am at 10:10, still aren't open. I call and their voicemail says they are closed Sundays. Thanks for a waste of time! Also have been in here before and the girl working the shop was very rude to me. I walked in and she barely acknowledged me. I walked into the room to the right and she walked away from me saying nothing. Unsatisfactory. read more

Blake was a fantastic guide and teacher for our first fly fishing experience. I was a little bit intimidated when we set out, but he soon put me at ease. Blake demonstrated and clearly explained the techniques and was incredibly encouraging, helpful, and accommodating. He also pointed out many good fishing spots. We caught plenty of fish! The day was really fun and we learned a lot. We're excited to give it a go on our own soon. read more

Great fly shop. A couple days of R & R before my son, a CSU transfer student hits the books. He is a novice fly fisherman and I (decades of fly fishing) had never fished trout in the Rocky Mtn. region. Our guide Rex, patiently shared his knowledge with my son and me (who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks). We both learned a lot and had a great day on the gorgeous Poudre River. The guys at the shop are passionate about the sport and the equipment is top notch. Back home in Alaska I've been busy spreading the word about a great business in Old Town Ft. Collins, CO. read more

I have been in this shop on and off for 10 plus years. Living in Missouri doesn't allow me to get there as often as I like but anytime I'm within a day's drive I have to stop by. The staff is second to none and will spend hours talking, demonstrating and just helping out any way they can. Yes there are times I've loitered without purchasing anything and the crew doesn't act offended. I have used their guide service 3 times for myself and customers and all I can say is this, I learned more in 5 hours than I did in a season on my own. Every guide has their way of teaching and EVERY SINGLE ONE love what they do. We laughed at my mistakes and the clients who I took had never held a rod before but you wouldn't know this but the skill they possessed at the end of the day. Thank you SPFS for the passion and caring you show to the clients, customers and rivers you handle. You have a customer for life, even if I am 11 hours away. Mike McAllister read more

Fantastic shop, service and people. Have been a customer, student and most recently on a guided trip. Can't say enough good things...keep up the great work! read more
