At Deneki Outdoors, our lodges are totally focused on providing a fly fishing experience that’s second to none. Does that mean that you need to be an expert to fish with us? Heck no.
Three of our four lodges are great places to learn how to fly fish. At BC West, we’re not shy about the fact that you need to have some days under your belt to really appreciate the experience. At Alaska West, Andros South and Chile West, our guests range from actual first-time, never-picked-up-a-fly-rod-before anglers, to world-traveling angling experts.
Here’s why Alaska West, Andros South and Chile West are great places to learn how to fly fish.
- You will catch fish and you’ll have fun doing it. Our remote fisheries are really productive and have extremely low angling pressure, and that means you’re going to be successful. Having too many people around screws up the fishing. Catching fish is fun.
- Our guides are really patient and skilled in working with anglers of all ability levels, including first-timers.
- We run instructional programs designed to help people get better at particular types of fishing, like our Bonefishing Schools at Andros South, for example.
- The atmosphere at our lodges is really low-key and you don’t need to by shy about what you don’t know. Our people, guests and staff alike, are going to share in the fun that you have when you get it right!

Just to back up the comments made in “Learning to Fly Fish”.My experience in Spey casting was limited to “normal” Spey lines and the Skagit line was new to me.I had to re learn in order to cast the Skagit with 15ft T14 with a fly that would not look out of place on my Xmas tree!The guides in Alaska West not only know how to cast they also know how to teach which is a very different skill.All you need to bring with you is the ability to listen and enjoy.If they can get me catching fish they can teach anyone!!

Thanks so much for the good words, John. It’s been a pleasure fishing with you and working with you on your Skagit casting.
