Expert Profile: Gary Tchida

Expertise: My background includes 20+ years of freshwater fly fishing experience angling in a variety of conditions on lakes, streams, and rivers. I have knowledge of tactics on a number of species including Bass, Trout, Panfish, and Salmon to name a few. In addition to my knowledge of species, I am able to answer questions on gear and tackle selection.
I have fished (both fly and conventional tackle) extensively for over 20 years.
