Conner is a multi-species angler, well versed in the pursuit of trophy fish using swimbaits and upsized conventional approaches. He has adapted these techniques to achieve multiple top finishes in local and club bass fishing tournaments hosted around CNY. As a lifelong angler, Conner has extensive experience fishing the lakes, ponds and rivers of New York from the bank, kayak and boat in search of the largest Bass, Walleye and Pike. Conner is also an avid fly fisherman and spends a great amount of time exploring small headwater streams in search of native Brook Trout. As a recent graduate of SUNY ESF with a B.S. in Aquatic and Fisheries Science, he is dedicated to the preservation and conservation of our aquatic ecosystems, with a special focus on the underappreciated or "non-game" species native to the United States.
