He presents seminars and teaches casting to nearly 1,000 students annually and carefully listens and helps customers with the correct equipment choice for their current expertise level.
"My interest in fishing was time spent with my dad and grandfather," Mr. McElwain said. "Some of my fondest memories are of sitting on the bank at Bennett Springs, Missouri with a cane pole and wooly worm.
Fortunate to have had patient mentors and peers, Mr. McElwain loves flyfishing and the serenity of standing in a stream watching the hatch and reading the water. Fishing and traveling every chance he can, he has honed his skills enough to pay it forward and teach the next generation of great fishermen.
