Pierce Klingbiel

Originally from Naples, Florida. Grew up spin and fly fishing for bass, juvenile tarpon, snook, and redfish. Learned to tie flies from Drew Chicone at the Fort Meyers bass pro in 8th grade. Came to Colorado to play golf in college. The mountains quickly sucked me in. I started teaching golf for a fishing and golf club 5 years ago. That’s when I realized I wanted to be a fishing guide. I bought a raft and started guiding the roaring fork river. This season I got a drift boat and started guiding for Alec Lucas(fish.a.day). Since guiding for Alec, I have really been able to step my game up, with both fish and clients. I truly believe my boat is in the 10% of boats that catch 90% of the fish.

Couldn’t get my instagram in there so here it is: @pierceklingbiel and @flytyingcolorado
