What to do and see in El Paso County, El Paso County: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

Come visit one of the largest fly shops in the world! For those looking for adventure we provide full and half day guided fly fishing trips. Also during the summer months we provide a free Orvis 101 Fly Fishing Class, see our website for details. Our goals are to provide the best value possible to our customers and to promote and grow fly fishing in our community. We want to invite people into our adventure and serve them in their journey. When planning your next pleasure or business trip to Colorado, make sure to include a customized fly fishing trip guided by the leader in Colorado Springs for over 20 years, Angler's Covey. The South Platte River boasts of rippling water splashing over cascading boulders and winding through deep granite canyons, sheltered by a ponderosa forest. Deep pockets and sweeping runs hide the elusive trophy rainbow and brown trout, waiting for their meal to dance on the water or emerge through the depths. Our experienced guides know this river and love to help you locate the trout, identify the hatch, choose the fly and teach you these and other skills. All of this is waiting for you, at about an hour's drive from either Colorado Springs or Denver. So don't miss out on a customized fly fishing adventure tailored around your needs. We provide both individual and corporate trips and will work around your schedule.
