About Royal Gorge Anglers and SoCO Guides
Hours: 8am to 6pm Monday - Saturday; 8am to Noon - Sunday
We're usually around before 8am (we don't sleep much during fishing season)
We are located two miles west of Canon City @ Skyline Dr on the West Bound side (49311 US 50 West, Canon City, CO 81212). We are in a 4000 sq. ft. log building and are flanked by Arkansas River Tours, our float and whitewater partner for 15 years. We also have on the property, the first fly shop operated lodge on the Arkansas River.
A full service fly shop, Royal Gorge Anglers stocks not only the top of line in fly fishing equipment; but, also custom flies you will not find anywhere else. We tie specifically for our rivers and support local tiers. It just happens to be that we have a few of the world's best tiers and designers in this area. Our signature tier is Mr. Larry Kingrey, a Whiting Pro and Idylwilde Designer. You can look at Larry's patterns. We carry most major industry brands, as well as the gear that you just can't find anywhere else, thus making us what we are.....25th Anniversary aka "Legit":
