Angler
Brayton has been fishing the waters around southeast Tennessee since he was old enough to hold a rod and reel, but he was first introduced to fly fishing by his dad at 10 years old. He continued on his fly fishing journey throughout his teenage years and college, ultimately fishing in his first competition in Cherokee, NC in 2018. That initial event opened his eyes to a tight-knit community of highly skilled fly fishermen who pushed him to improve his tactics and techniques. The camaraderie and exponential growth Brayton has experienced as an angler during his time in the competitive fly fishing scene has only further cemented his passion for the sport.
