Meet Your Guide

Fly Fishing Guide - Square Crop

A Kansas native, Chase started his fly fishing journey at 15. After targeting carp along the marsh flats and largemouth in ponds and streams, he quickly knew his hunger for technical skills and knowledge would be life-long. It wasn't many years before Chase took interest in fly tying to target specific species. This undoubtedly lit the fire for his current interest in entomology, the study of aquatic insects.

Seeking more species to add to his repertoire, Chase spent time hunting trout in Colorado, and after moving to Phoenix, he spent many days along the Salt River where he was able to catch his favorite species all in one place. Today you can find him along Oak Creek, exploring Northern Arizona, or day-dreaming of catching tarpon in the Keys.

Being a GORP Guide, Chase focuses on education, casting instruction and informational guiding practices. Providing not only an experience, but also leaving you with skills that can be continually honed.
