About Me
-
Rob Snowhite
- I am the
fly fishing consultant and yes, that is my real last name.
I provide expert knowledge and advice to fly fisherman in Virginia,
Maryland, Washington D.C. and beyond. Think of me as
a personal trainer, coach, or tutor for the angler. I specialize in
urban and suburban fly fishing for warm water species like striped bass,
carp, catfish, sunfish, gar, snakeheads, largemouth and smallmouth
bass. Through my instruction you will become a more competent and self
sufficient angler.
My background in consulting, education, fly fishing, and science gives me a unique approach to fly fishing education and instruction. You will gain a whole new perspective on fly fishing that you will not gain from a local fly shop, magazine, or TV show. Maybe you have a general question about fly fishing, contact me and I'll do my best to answer your request.
