Knowledgeable and friendly. One the best fly shops I’ve ever visited

Amazing staff and a lot of fly fishing / fly tying inventory. They share information and tips freely and never push for a sale. In fact, they easily could have oversold me items a few times. They also treat veterans extremely well.

It's been a few years since I've written anything about Elkhorn rod and reel in Loveland. Since Jim and his son Dan have taken over the business from Brian I have continued to experience exceptional customer service.A recent example includes a challenge I had with a 5-wt rod that I bought several years ago that I had to get in for service with Dan. After explaining the situation I continually found myself "wowed" by the exceptional interest of Dan in wanting to take care of me as a customer. He went way above and beyond of what I expected. Supporting a local mom-and-pop business like Elkhorn is vital to our community.Dan's actions ensured the fact that not only that I felt important to him as a customer but because he went well beyond my wildest expectations he's retained me as a customer for life. Of course I have told dozens and dozens of people about my experience and the service they offer. I've not only relied on his fly fishing advice but appreciate the friendship of Dan and Marty every time I visit the shop.Way to go Dan great job! And, thanks for making me feel that my business and relationship is important to you and your shop.Dr. Gil Z. Coleman - Sports & Family ChiropractorThe Wellness Center For Sport & SpineFort Collins, CO 805251-4-2024I am updating my review from a few years ago. I should have written this at the end of last summer in 2023 but here it is. Again Dan to the rescue. I was on a bucket list trip and went to MT to fish 3 rivers and on my last day broke on of my rods. After returning home, I went to Elkhorn and saw Dan. I have 2 Elkhorn rods. I asked for 2 extra tips for each rod so that I would not be in the same position again of being without a replacement for a broken tip and viola! Dan fixes me up and boom! Now I'm ready for trout-battle! Thanks AGAIN Dan!!

Dan was an amazing amount of help for me getting my sons started on tying flies as well as myself. He was super knowledgeable and beyond friendly to my family. He was up front about what I needed to get started and what could wait till down the road. I will most definitely be back to this shop and they will get my business in the coming years. Thanks again Dan!

This place is awesome. Nice, clean facility. Excellent customer service. Dan set me up with a nice fly box and shared information re: where the trout are biting today. There's a cool workstation where you can watch flies being made. You can tell these guys love fly fishing. Definitely earned my return business.

Best fly shop in NoCo by far, I thought my rod was decent until I got my hands on one of Dan's masterpieces. Cool local vibes and great products at a good price. Do yourself a favor and stop in!

This fly shop is great. I've driven by so many times and now I regret that I never dropped into this nondescript building! I live in the area and they appear to be the best stocked and have the greatest variety of materials in the Fort Collins/Loveland area. I've been to the other shops and though they are good, I've not felt compelled to write a review for them. Jason was on duty when I went in and he was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. The shop is put together and organized well. Prices seemed to a be little better on some things. When I got my receipt I noticed another plus, a lower tax rate than Fort Collins. I'll be making the drive to visit Elkhorn more often.

The staff at Elkhorn Fly Shop was super helpful! Had a blast today getting outside and trying to catch a fish. Had about an hour window to catch something.. although this wasn’t the elusive 30” brown trout, a fish is a fish :)Thanks for the help!

Went out with Matt today on a drift fishing excursion. He did a great job. Of course, he ruined my son forever…kid has never fly fished before, and Matt put him on this absolute monster of a rainbow. We did the two-person Big Thompson half day excursion.

Great rods built on-site, tons of fly tying gear and locally tied flies, and all the other gear you need
