Cameron is the founder of Bushwhack and its lead engineer. He fishes throughout Utah and the wider Rockies — mostly fly fishing rivers and streams, with regular detours into stillwater. Trout are his bread and butter, but he'll chase anything with fins and is always pushing for a new species on the list. He picked up a fly rod in 2012 and hasn't put it down since. When he's not on the water, he's building the tools he wished he'd had a decade ago — every feature in the app started as something he needed for his own log.
