CAMERON LAYNE
“Fish conservation is like a Rubik’s Cube. It takes many twists and turns to get at least one side right, but even then there still lies many other challenges around it. NFC is full of passionate people willing to take on these challenges, which is a testament to the devotion and focus of the organization.”
CAMERON LAYNE is from Burton, Ohio. He has been an avid angler and conservationist for most of life. Cameron’s passion is the protection of endangered species, stream habitat repair, and educating the masses in regard to native fish species, especially darters. Cameron grew up just 30 minutes from one of the greatest sources of native fish diversity in the eastern United States, Lake Erie. It was there that he became a fish conservationist. Cameron holds an Associate's degree in Fisheries Management and Aquaculture from Hocking College, and a Bachelor's degree in Fisheries Sciences from West Virginia University where he acted as a American Fisheries Society sub-unit officer. Cameron has gained broad fisheries-related work experiences as an employee of organizations such as the Geauga Park District, Hocking College, West Virginia University, and as a volunteer of Trout Unlimited, Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Friends of the Cheat, and American Fisheries Society.
