Asheville Fly Fishing Company Guide ~ David Grossman

We are happy to announce the addition of David Grossman to the Asheville Fly Fishing Company Guide team. David specializes in Trout & Smallmouth Bass and prefers floating the bigger tail waters or freestone rivers. He is also AFFC’s new camp chef where you can expect to see him on one of our Overnight Trips smoking ribs by the fire or stirring a giant pot of frogmoore stew.

David was born in Charlotte, NC, and has more than 20 years experience fishing and guiding the rivers of WNC and East Tennessee. After college at Washington & Lee University, David spent his time back and forth between his home in NC and the legendary rivers of the Rocky Mountain West.

After permanently moving to Asheville in 2008, David co-founded a digital fly fishing magazine for the Southeast, Southern Culture On The Fly, and remains the editor and co-publisher.

David is a master juggler and wears many hats between the magazine and his position as a respected home builder & developer in the area, guiding and serving as AFFC’s chef on overnight trips.

When he’s not attending to work matters, David can usually be found fishing trout on the east Tennessee tail waters or Smallmouth Bass in the freestone rivers of the area.

David believes that a day of fishing should be fun above all else and runs his trips accordingly. Fish will most likely be caught, but the laughs will be inevitable.  David’s guided trip photos
