George Daniel has an impressive resume… he started fly fishing when he was a young boy before trying out — and qualifying — for Fly Fishing Team USA. George is a two-time US National Fly Fishing Champion and was ranked as high as 5th in the world. He’s also the author of multiple best selling fly fishing books, as well as the director and lead instructor for the Pennsylvania State University Fly Fishing Program. In this episode of Anchored, we take an inside look into George’s personal life and learn more about how he came to be the seasoned professional he is today.
