Bob Reece is a passionate fly-fishing guide and coach who transitioned from a career in education to pursue his lifelong love for the sport. Growing up in Nebraska, Bob was introduced to fly fishing by his father during trips to Wyoming, sparking a passion that would later define his professional journey. After drifting away from fishing due to sports and college football, he rediscovered it post-graduation and began guiding clients in Colorado and Wyoming while still teaching.
As he became increasingly disengaged from teaching, Bob made the courageous decision to follow his passion full-time, emphasizing the importance of planning and addressing fears associated with such a significant change. His experiences with successful guiding companies laid a strong foundation for his own business, where he values client relationships and logistical management.
Bob's journey has taken him internationally, including notable fishing trips to South America, where he explores unique fishing environments and engages with diverse clientele. He combines his guiding work with coaching and counseling, aiming to provide emotional growth through outdoor activities like fishing. Bob is committed to making the counseling process approachable and engaging, envisioning retreats that connect therapeutic practices with the joy of fishing.
