About the Tyer:
Born in Trondheim, Norway, a passion for angling and the outdoors was not out of the ordinary. After moving to the United States when he was just a toddler, Eirik was raised in the Ann Arbor area and eventually graduated from Michigan Technological University in 2008.
With family ties bringing him to the AuSable River, Huron River, Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and back to Norway for much of his life, Eirik was quick to fall in love with fly fishing.
Eirik has spent much of his life finding any and every water that he could fish with a fly from the small creeks and rivers in the Upper Peninsula for Trout, Salmon and Steelhead; the AuSable River for Trout, Steelhead, Bass and Pike; the Huron River for Steelhead, Bass and Pike; rivers and lakes in Norway for Trout and Grayling; and even the Sierra Nevada in California for Golden Trout, Brook Trout, Rainbow Trout and Cutthroat Trout.
After nearly 15 years of fly fishing, Eirik joined the Colton Bay Outfitters staff and the Board of Directors for the Ann Arbor Chapter of Trout Unlimited where he continues to share his passion and knowledge of the sport.
Eirik currently lives in Ypsilanti, Michigan and works and guides for Colton Bay Outfitters, an Orvis Endorsed Outfitter and Guide Service, Schultz Outfitters and owns and operates Vitso Images, a photography and design business. Some of his flies will appear in the 2011 Orvis Catalog and will be available worldwide.
