Capt. Chris Gatley :

Chris started along the banks of the Delaware River while working the party boat fleet in Cape May during the summer months.  It did not take long for his guide service, Ardent Angler, to catch the eye of some of the industry's most prominent companies due to his on the water successes.   As his business, name and credibility grew, The Fisherman Magazine hired Chris as a Field Editor, responsible for various articles and stroylines across the northeast.  In 2005, Chris caught the eye of ESPN Outdoors where he began helping key executives with client entertainment and on the water success.  This partnership blossomed into online blogs, fishing video and other fishing related information.  Chris is one of us, growing up fishing the waterways of eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey including the inshore and offshore waters of the north east and great lakes.
