Business Development
Nathan Anton
I’m Nathan Anton, but you can call me Nate. I live in the beautiful state of Colorado with my wife Autumn and my dog Dash. I was born and raised in Brecksville, OH where I grew up fishing for bass, perch, walleye, and steelhead with my dad. I come from a family of muskie fishermen, so we took trips often to Canada to seek out big muskie and pike. My passion is fly-fishing, and it has taken me to the most stunning and serene places. I have been blessed to have such beautiful stories and memories of fishing and can only hope that my fly-fishing career continues to grow as I connect with other enthusiasts in this beautiful sport.
Content Writer
Cody Fongemie
Born and raised in New England, he was surrounded by history and quickly developed a love for reading about our nation's past and extraordinary adventures. This passion naturally led him to become an avid outdoorsman and dedicated writer on related topics. After completing his education in South Carolina and wanting to serve, he enlisted in the Air Force, where he is actively serving. He dedicates his free time to exploring his passion for hunting, fly fishing, and all-around adventurous activities. When he's not wading through the waters of the Farmington River or hunting ducks in the marshes of Massachusetts, he's pouring his passion into writing about all hunting, fishing, and outdoor-related topics. This work also trickles into actively connecting the military community with the outdoors through non-profit initiatives. Cody currently lives in Connecticut with his wife, Carlei, and their dog Winnie.
