Ashley White was born and bred in the Midwest. He took a fly-tying lesson and that set off a chain of events that he claims would ruin his life. By ruin, he actually means, helped him feel welcomed in his new home in Minnesota and a passion to pursue for the rest of his life. Ashley believes that the river is one of the best places to build relationships. He hopes to inspire a new generation of diverse anglers to enter the sport and wishes to remove barriers for anyone who has a desire to learn. While not guiding, he spends time with his wife and children in Minneapolis.
