Gil Lackey

Gil Lackey is an outdoor humor writer from Nashville, TN. He served as President of the Cumberland Chapter of Trout Unlimited, and he is a Board Member of the newly-formed Middle Tennessee Quality Deer Management Association. He enjoys wingshooting and bow hunting for deer, turkeys, and predators. Gil teaches fly fishing and fly tying seminars, mostly for children. He loves fly fishing for trout, smallmouth, largemouth, panfish, and saltwater fish, but he is best known for chasing the “lesser species” with the fly rod. Carp, gar, and skipjack are at the top of that list.  Gil has the dubious honor of having won multiple carp fly fishing tournaments. Conservation is his true passion.
