Robert Gerlach-Director
My passion for Fly Fishing began in 2001 when I met my wife. I picked up a spey rod very early on and put all other forms of fishing aside. I have since become a Certified Casting Instructor and I spend many hours teaching fly casting to youth throughout the Pacific Northwest.

He took up fly fishing and tying in 2006 and has two flies published in the Fly Tying Journal and one fly on display at a museum in New York’s Catskills. He has been a board member of the (WSCFFI) since 2011
Larry Gibbs-Director
I am presently a director and the vendor coordinator for the Washington State Council. I am a life member of the FFI and belong to the President’s Club, plus I am a life member of the Fly Tying Group. I was also the auction coordinator for the FFI for five years and I served a term on the FFI’s Board of Directors. My past duties with the WSC have included the positions of auction coordinator, treasurer and secretary. I am the president of the FFI Charter Club, the Alpine Fly Fishers, in Puyallup as well as their newsletter editor. I will fish all waters but I prefer to fish for trout and smallmouth bass in the rivers of eastern Washington and western Montana.
