Lead Guide Jack Bombardier lives on the “lower” Upper Colorado River where he floats lucky people down one of the prettiest canyons in the state. He grew up fishing the hills of western Massachusetts, and honed his skills in the Berkshire and Catskill Mountains.
RYAN DAVIS is a very accomplished oarsman and another one of our float guides who spends most of June chasing the salmonfly hatch around the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. His knowledge of hatches and float fishing tactics has grown to be of equal stature as his rowing capabilities, and he is a great host for a day of floating down our local rivers.
