Andy was born and raised in Wisconsin and started chasing trout and salmon all over the state when he was 17. After finishing college, he moved out west to Colorado to the Yampa Valley in Steamboat Springs to enjoy the fishing and outdoor activities. He enjoys some good trouting, carping and blowing chances on the flats when he goes south. Andy guides fellow trout enthusiasts for Steamboat Flyfisher in Colorado and for Trout Creek Flies in Utah.
