Public Lands represent a portal to adventure for most of us. Maintaining access to public lands is the mission of Back Country Hunters and Anglers; Land Tawney, President and CEO, is at the helm of that effort.

In this first episode of Fin and Fire with Jeff Mishler, I learn that not only do Land and I share concerns about the future of public lands access, but that we share many life experiences leading us to this interview.

About Jeff Mishler

Jeff Mishler is a fifth generation Oregonian who's life work is hard to quantify. Father, writer, photographer, television commercial director, environmentalist, video producer/distributor, website manager, hunter, angler and lifelong recreationist who lives a fly-by-the-seat-of-yourpants mantra. If he’s not in his office writing another essay or developing a show concept, he’s chasing mallards and pheasants with his lab Hailey, running his jet sled up a local river to a sweet steelhead run, setting up on a screaming bull elk with bow in hand or conspiring with his small circle of equally affected steelhead bums while downing healthy portions of really good Oregon beer.
