Since moving to Fort Collins in 1991, Jin has been passionate about learning the local rivers and lakes. Although calling the northern Front Range home, his pursuit of any fish eager to chase a fly has led him to spend seasons in locations stretching from Alaska to the Caribbean. While there are not many things he enjoys more than time on the water, teaching others about flyfishing, fly tying, and entomology are just as rewarding. Even if you are unable to attend any of Jin's classes or arrange a guided trip with him, he is always happy to answer questions or just chat about your latest fishing adventure.

A Northern Colorado native, fly fishing has been a part of Aaron's life since he was given his father’s old fiberglass fly rod at age 12. Armed with his father's traditional fly fishing techniques, an arsenal of stillwater knowledge from his father-in-law, and a new-found love for spey casting and two-handed rods, Aaron is equally at home tossing dries on the Poudre, swinging flies on the Miracle Mile or float tubing the Delaney Buttes with sinking lines and streamers. With unending patience and undying enthusiasm, he truly enjoys sharing the fly fishing life style with everyone...whether it be on the water, in the shop or the local watering hole. When not on the water, he can be found tying last minute bugs for tomorrow's trip, picking the guitar or reading John Gierach's latest work.

Thomas was born and raised in Illinois, where his passion for fishing started with bass and bluegill as a youngster.  It quickly evolved into an obsession and at the age of 16 he picked up his first fly rod. He chased pike, bass, and anything else that he could get a fly in front of.  He moved out to Colorado in 2013 to pursue a degree at Colorado State University in Natural Resources, Business, and trout of course.  When he wasn’t studying, Thomas was out learning new water.  With a shop like St. Petes in town, the world was at his fingertips.  Today, when he’s not in the shop, you can find Thomas stalking high alpine lakes in search for cutthroat, up in Wyoming looking for trout, or getting back to his roots and pike fishing.  But that’s not the extent of his knowledge.  He has also spent a great deal of time chasing snook, tarpon, bonefish and permit.  Don’t be afraid to pick his brain about any sort of fish.  Thomas loves sharing his passion for fly fishing, helping people put together pieces of the puzzle when they seem to be lost.
