As Colorado natives, Nick and Sharyce Herman founded Mountain Fly Shop with a simple mission: make fly fishing more welcoming and accessible to everyone. After founding and later selling two previous fly fishing businesses, the Hermans saw firsthand that many people are interested in the sport but do not feel invited in. Too often, that comes down to fly shop culture. In some places, customers are talked down to or made to feel like they have to prove themselves before they deserve help.
Fly fishing can also feel intimidating at first because it involves a unique set of skills and a learning curve. To help lower those barriers, Mountain Fly Shop offers free education every month, including one free fly fishing class and one free fly tying class. The classes are designed to be approachable for beginners, with families encouraged to attend.
The community focus extends beyond classes. The shop also hosts events and partners with local groups, including a recent Women’s Night event with the CSU Fly Fishing Club.
Guided trips are offered throughout Colorado and beyond, including destination travel. Nick Herman notes that the shop continues to expand the range of waters and experiences available each year as opportunities and permits allow.
The Hermans have one son, and they hope to pass along fly fishing as a family activity that connects generations while also welcoming new anglers into the sport.
Mountain Fly Shop is the top rated fly shop in Northern Colorado.
Mountain Fly Shop is in Old Town Fort Collins at 105 W. Mountain Avenue. For class information, visit in-store, online or email info@mountainflyshop.com. The shop’s phone number is 970.227.5643 and the website is https://mountainflyshop.com
