The Guides: Gary

Gary has been with us since 2005. After cleaning boats and running shuttles throughout the first year's apprenticeship, he is now part of our full time guide staff. Gary learned how to dry fly fish on the banks of Silver Creek and other southwestern Idaho waters. As an avid angler with a love for the outdoors, Gary is always in tune with what is going on, in and on the water. If it is stalking big browns in shallow water, working that perfect riffle, fishing the early morning hatch, Gary is always ready for whatever it takes to catch big fish. His honesty, responsible manor and kind demeanor are the backbone of his guiding. One should never pass up a chance to fish with "Big Garr."

To me fishing is like art. It’s in my blood. – Gary Tilton
