Eric Janzer is life long Coloradan, freelance writer and photographer with over 40 years of outdoors experience. His pursuit of outdoor adventure has taken him from bone fishing the turquoise flats of Andros Island to the decks of a commercial fishing boat out of Kodiak, Alaska. His writings have been published in Sports Afield and his photography has frequently been seen in Fishing & Hunting News. As the guide coordinator for a nationally known Orvis fly fishing outfitter he planned and led Alaskan fly-fishing adventures, recording the events on film and video. Upon their return he gave public seminars for local Trout Unlimited Chapters as well as the sponsoring shop.

He has successfully guided big game hunters in pursuit of elk along Colorado’s great divide and has introduced numerous new hunters to the sport. An accomplished hunter in his own right, he has taken big game with bow, muzzleloader and modern rifle.

When he’s not out sampling the fly fishing waters of Wyoming or goose hunting the fields of eastern Colorado you can find him at his reloading bench, fine tuning his latest elk cartridge. His wife frequently joins him on many excursions afield and they both enjoy serving up the bounty of the great outdoors using their favorite gourmet recipes.
