Jim Monroe
Jim Monroe has spent the majority of his life fishing, with the past 12 years spent mastering the waters of middle Tennessee with a fly rod. Jim specializes in fly-fishing for any species that swims! Unlike most, he does not limit fly-fishing to simply trout. Jim spends most of his time fishing the waters of middle Tennessee for smallmouth bass, trout, carp, largemouth bass, hybrid and striped bass, and most other warm water species. His main passions are fly-fishing for smallmouth bass in smaller rivers and streams, and chasing carp in the shallows of lakes and rivers. Jim also possesses an in-depth knowledge and experience in saltwater fly-fishing. When not on the water guiding clients or simply fishing for himself, Jim can be found at Fly South, Nashville’s premier full-service fly shop. Stop by the shop or give Jim a call at (615)251-6199.
