Nevadan by choice, and author of Fly Fishing in the 21st Century. He spends most of the year aimlessly driving the West in search of elk, birds, and trout, and remains actively involved in public lands conservation in southern and central Nevada.

Raised on fly fishing at a young age in the White Mountains of Arizona, Dana moved with his family to Colorado, where he learned to work deeper, faster waters and to love bird hunting. He later moved his own family to Wyoming, where he honed his big game hunting skills in he majestic Wind River and Teton Mountains. Currently living with his wife, Pamela, in the Texas Panhandle, he and she currently have their sights set on returning home to those mountains.

Vincent Bini is a lifelong outdoorsman and retired firefighter/paramedic with 28 years of service. After decades navigating Florida’s backcountry waters, he now splits his time between writing, running fishing charters, and getting into just enough trouble to write about it. His debut book, The Glades Are Trying to Kill Me, captures the absurdity and danger of life on the water — much like the stories he continues to tell, drawn from over 30 years of chasing fish and weathering the wild moods of Florida’s backcountry.
