Biography

Michael L. Yelton, Owner/Operator
Michael L. Yelton, born and raised in Rutherford County, is the owner and operator of The Granddaddy Fly-Fishing Experience, LLC (established 2005) and has been a avid fisherman since childhood. While only fishing for sport during his time in grade school and college, Michael's true passion for fly-fishing was fully developed during the five years he spent living in Colorado. During this time, Michael worked full-time for a fly-fishing outfitter and guide service and averaged more than 80 trips a season. These trips included full-day and half-day wade, float and hike-in trips, as well as instructional lessons and casting demonstrations on the techniques of fly fishing.

In addition to this experience, Michael has spent two seasons guiding for the Biltmore Estate's Fly-Fishing School in Asheville, NC, and continues to guide for them on a part-time basis.

Michael is also certified in First Aid and CPR to ensure added safety to his clients. His additional certifications include On-River Training, Water Safety and Boating Safety Certification.

The Granddaddy Fly-Fishing Experience, LLC is a catch and release only guide service.
