About Mike Kruise

Mike is usually the first person you meet at the Laughing Grizzly. His enthusiasm for fly fishing is obvious to everyone who meets him. Mike has fished all over the western US, Alaska, the Seychelles, the Bahamas and Belize. While he loves fishing for bones, his favorite saltwater target is barracuda. Mike guides in Rocky Mountain National Park, at North Fork Ranch near Bailey and streams in South Park near Fairplay. If you want to know where and how to fish in the Western US, Mike is the guy to talk to. Mike is the co-author with Steve Schweitzer of A Fly Fishing Guide to Indian Peaks Wilderness Area.
