Christina Medved

Christina Medved is Director of Community Outreach at Roaring Fork Conservancy. She has waded into many rivers across the U.S., Peru and Costa Rica, in search of  macroinvertebrates. In the last 28 years, Christina has taught thousands of people how to identify these aquatic organisms (fish food!). Christina was born and raised in Cleveland and did a lot of spin casting with her family on the many lakes and ponds that make up Northeast Ohio. (To this day she still believes her big brother is the best angler she knows!) She was used to catching bluegill and bass, but it was when she moved to Colorado that she started putting her aquatic insect knowledge to the test with fly fishing our world-class rivers. Her favorite fly to tie and fish with are her very own Wooly Buggers. As a certified teacher-trainer of the National Fishing in Schools Program, Christina has taught hundreds of youth and adults how to fly fish through RFC’s fly fishing camps and clinics over the last 9 years.

Lincoln Neiley

I grew up here in the Roaring Fork Valley. My dad taught my brother and me how to fish when we were very young. Fly fishing was something we would do every chance we had. We did many trips to the Bighorn, the Green, and many floats down the Roaring Fork. I graduated high school in 2004 and took a job working for TIm Heng at the Taylor Creek Fly shop in Basalt. I learned a ton that summer. One of the things I learned was that guiding was more fun than selling flys. I got my first drift boat the following spring, and started as a guide. I was at the shop for 17 years. In 2022 I renewed the oufitters license that my dad had created in 1988. I am the Owner of Thunder River Outfitters and we take people float fishing on the Roaring Fork and Colorado rivers. I feel fortunate to have incredible guides that I get to work along side: Mike Thomas, Jeremy Stott, Matthew Thomas, and Ed Dieson just to name a few. Getting in a drift boat for a day on our local rivers always puts a smile on my face and helps me remember just how lucky we are to have this incredible fishing in our back yard.

Scott Spooner

“Spooner” hails from rural Missouri, where he began his so-called career at an early age fishing for perch, catfish, bass and crappie. After he was introduced to the skiing scene in Crested Butte as a youngster, Colorado’s siren song pulled him westward once he was old enough to fly the coop. After working in the restaurant industry for over 26 years, Scott began a new career in the fly fishing industry in 2007 and never looked back. Whispered rumors of rainy summer day Fryingpan hatches drew him to the Roaring Fork Valley, and the myriad year-round fishing opportunities keep him rooted here. Now manager of Taylor Creek Fly Shop, he tends to be mostly an indoor cat versus outdoor at this point, but occasionally still guides when his schedule allows. Spooner produces the annual “Fly on the Wall” newspaper and is a weekly columnist in the Aspen Times and Post Independent with the popular “On the Fly” column. He is the Guide Coordinator for the Western Slope’s Casting for Recovery program and enjoys fishing the Louisiana marsh for redfish, hosting bonefish trips to Christmas Island, genealogy, tying flies, float fishing, and entomology.
