About Us

Benjamin Johnson
Raised in the breathtaking landscapes of Idaho, Benji developed a deep connection with nature through fishing trips with his grandfather on the Henry's Fork and Fall River. These early experiences taught him patience, respect for the wilderness, and a love for the great outdoors. Winters were equally cherished, spent ice fishing with his father on Utah's Strawberry Reservoir which only reinforced his passion for angling and creating cherished family traditions. Later in life, thanks to Brady and Grandpa Rene, Benji discovered his passion for fly fishing - a pursuit that deepened his appreciation for the art and patience of fishing, rekindling his connection to the waters that helped shape his youth.
Benji is married to Lettie, who you can find working in the shop. Together they have three up-and-coming anglers, that would fish everyday if they could. Benji and Lettie began their story with a memorable first date fishing on the Henry's Fork, a place that holds special meaning for them.
