Our Story

 

Born from a passion for fly fishing and a love for sharing the experience with others, Fish On Adventuring was created to offer anglers a unique, high-quality fishing getaway. Our team is dedicated to providing world-class fishing, adventure, and relaxation in some of the most beautiful locations.

​

Our Mission

 

We believe fly fishing is more than a sport—it's a way to connect with nature, build community, and create lasting memories. Our goal is to provide expertly guided experiences that honor conservation, sustainability, and the traditions of fly fishing.

Our Founder

 

Zach Weinzetl is the founder of Fish On Adventuring, a boutique fly fishing travel company that offers customized, guided adventures around the world. Since launching the company in 2019, Zach has facilitated life-changing trips to destinations including the Bahamas, Belize, Mexico, Costa Rica, Hawaii, Florida, Montana, Idaho, and New Orleans—with the philosophy that no destination is too far if the fishing is right. Whether it’s chasing steelhead in the Pacific Northwest, stalking redfish in southern marshes, or wading warm flats for bonefish, Zach curates fly fishing adventures that blend world-class angling with meaningful human connection.

 

With over 25 years of experience in the guide and wilderness industry, Zach brings a deep network of personal relationships with top-tier guides and outfitters across the globe. If he doesn’t know a guide personally, chances are he’s one degree removed—ensuring every trip is hosted with trust, safety, and authenticity.

 

Before launching Fish On Adventuring, Zach spent over a decade working as a professional mentor, therapeutic guide, and founder of Therapeutic Mentoring Services—an organization dedicated to helping young people and families navigate life’s challenges and transitions. He holds a degree in Contemplative Psychology from Naropa University, with an emphasis in health, healing, and humanistic psychology. His background includes training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and recovery coaching. This rare blend of clinical insight and wilderness leadership gives Zach the ability to meet people where they’re at—whether they’re clients seeking adventure, growth, healing, or simply the fish of a lifetime.

 

As a guide, Zach is deeply attuned to what his guests are looking for. His trips are about more than just fish—they’re about moments of awe, personal triumph, and unforgettable stories. With a Wilderness First Responder certification and a deep respect for safety and stewardship, Zach helps guests fully relax into the experience while staying present, playful, and connected to the wild.

 

A Montana native turned Colorado local, Zach is also an avid mountain biker, rock climber, and family man who’s just as likely to be found floating a remote river with his kids and dog as he is hosting clients on saltwater flats. He believes in living a life aligned with purpose and adventure—and invites others to do the same.

"My first trip with Zach was to San Pedro Belize.
​

We were a group of eight, each from a different place, but all sharing a love of fishing.
 

Zach is a kind soul with the heart of a teacher, patient and passionate.
 

Accommodations were fantastic and spacious, and offered contrast to the rustic charm of San Pedro.
 

The fishing was epic, and after 18 years, I achieved my first inshore Grand Slam.
 

For that, I am truly grateful."

My second trip with Zach was an amazing adventure to Costa Rica. 

 

To the southern tip, close to the Panamanian border, we eight enjoyed a Tarpon fishery unlike any I have ever experienced. 

 

Awakened to the call of howler monkeys and toucans,  every day seemed to surpass the last.

 

I have caught Tarpon before, but never in the numbers nor the rapidity. I literally had to take a moment to regain my strength before making another presentation, as every moment the fly was wet was an invitation to another battle.

 

I landed seven Tarpon that week with a new personal best of 140. That trip will forever live in my dreams.

 

Thank you truly Zach."
