ALEC LUCAS -  I was raised in Charlotte North Carolina and Charleston South Carolina. I grew up fishing with both my parents having a strong interest in the sport. My dad taught me how to fly fish when I was around 7 years old, and ever since I picked up a fly rod I can't put it down. I am a fly fishing guide for Minturn Anglers out of Minturn Colorado. I spend most of my time fishing on the Eagle and Colorado River.  I really enjoy chasing trophy brown trout and salt water species when I can. I think the best part about fly fishing for me is the thrill of the hunt and the fact that it takes me all over the world. I get to meet so many great people and share some truly remarkable experiences. The friendships you gain with this type of lifestyle will last a lifetime.

BROOK  FERRO -  Born and raised in Pocatello, Idaho. I was raised on some of the best fly fishing waters in the country. My father started me at a very young age of 3 and the itch has never stopped. Throughout the years I have traveled around Idaho fly fishing small mountain streams where the bull trout are to the grassy plains of still water fly fishing for bass. Every moment I get when I'm not hunting you can find me fly fishing all over the Gem state. In my down time I'm sitting behind the vise tying flies. Hoping to motivate more ladies on the water in 2019 as I'm building up the Idaho Lady Anglers group for women all over.​ Instagram.com/solohunter208

Amanda Plaisted - Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest and currently enjoying life in beautiful Southwest Montana. While I grew up fishing for fun in Washington state, I found fly fishing later in life and became instantly and completely addicted. These days, I fish as often as possible and spend most of my time wade fishing, casting from a boat, and swinging flies for steelhead. I am always hungry to learn more and am currently working on improving my skills behind the oars and delving into the world of fly tying! When I’m not fishing, I enjoy waterfowl and upland bird hunting and exploring new places with family and friends. As someone who was very hesitant to even attempt fly fishing, I hope to build confidence in other potential anglers and empower them to get out on the water and enjoy the great outdoors.
