Xander grew up in the fly fishing Mecca of New Canaan, Connecticut. He has been fishing the rivers and lakes of Montana for the last fifteen years. He comes to Fins and Feathers after a brief fly-by at Colorado State University, where he studied a wee bit of business. Xander can be found in the shop and guiding on the river, where he has great enthusiasm for catching fish in whatever way the conditions demand, but especially on big streamers. He has traveled extensively to chase fish. Some of his favorite destinations are Mongolia, New Zealand, Bolivia, Belize, and the Seychelles.
