Steve is a Colorado Native who grew up in the mountains West of Colorado Springs.

Woody was born and raised in the Roaring Fork Valley. Ever since he was a boy, fishing the valleys rivers, streams, and lakes was a daily ritual. In high school Woody worked in the local Fly Shop, Taylor Creek, in an effort to further his knowledge and abilities with a fly rod. Now Woody is entering his 9th season as a full time guide for Taylor Creek. Showing people the Roaring Fork Valley and its endless fishing opportunities is a true passion of his and is probably the most rewarding part of his career. The amazing trout these rivers offer are not a bad bonus either.

Born in Massachusetts, a true New England fan, I moved to Aspen, CO six in a half years ago. Adjusting from the ocean to mountains has been quite the change for me. I grew up fishing in ponds, rivers and deep sea fishing. I learned how to fly fish shortly after arriving in Colorado, and haven’t stopped doing it since. I love being on the river, and teaching people new things.
