We would spend all day putting out set lines for big flathead catfish in the Edisto River or catching Copperhead bream in Salkehatchie Swamp.

Lauren Hill is a passionate (and busy!) member of the outdoor industry. She is not the type to watch from the sidelines – she is the type to jump in and work. When she sees a need, she meets the need. Where she sees a gap, she fills the gap. That’s why she became the founder of outdoor lifestyle brand ReelCamo Girl.
Hill loves the outdoors and has been hunting, fishing, free diving, and shooting her whole life. She is the daughter of a hunter, oldest of seven siblings, wife of a Marine Corp Veteran and Police Officer, and mother. She created ReelCamo Girl to empower women in the outdoors and also to show them that they don’t have to compromise their femininity; that they can still be feminine holding a rifle or bow. The mission, Hill says, is to champion the fierce sportswoman, who thrives on providing for her family, teaching others about ethical and responsible hunting, and living out her passion as an outdoor enthusiast.
