Susan Thrasher
Southern Brookies Fly Fishing
Susan started fishing at a young age with her dad in East Tennessee and has been passionate about the outdoors all of her life. In 2004, she started Southern Brookies Fly Fishing, a guide service and instructional school. Finding this to be her true heart’s desire, she left a successful engineering career in 2015 to venture into the business full-time.
Susan has incorporated her passion for fly fishing into many aspects of her life. She is the co-founder of the Music City Fly Girls, a women’s fly fishing group, which is full of travel excursions and adventures. She is also the Middle Tennessee retreat leader for Casting for Recovery, a program focused on breast cancer survivors and the healing nature of fly fishing.
Susan credits most of her teaching success with the experience gained as an instructor at the Joan Wulff School of Fly Fishing, where she has been on staff for the past 17 years. She currently lives in East Nashville, Tennessee, which is a short drive to her beloved Caney Fork River.
We look forward to welcoming Susan as our Headliner for the 2024 Greater Cincinnati Fly Fishing Show.
