Andy Mill grew up enjoying the wilds of Colorado, skiing in the winters and hunting and fly-fishing. He rose to prominence as America's top downhill skier in the 1970s. He competed in the '74 Olympics where he finished sixth, the best finish by an American in decades. He retired from competitive skiing in '81 after a serious crash that left him with multiple injuries including a broken neck. He went on to work in television for 20 years, but it was his love of the outdoors, especially targeting tarpon on fly, that fueled his passion. He has won more invitational fly-fishing tarpon tournaments than anyone, including five Gold Cups. He has fished with some of the best guides and all sorts of celebrities and politicians. It is his love of fishing that led him to launch the Millhouse Podcast with his son Nicky. The podcast has documented the careers of famous guides, anglers and more.
