Mike Opitz has been fishing at Alaska West on the Kanektok for years. He’s a great angler and an even better guy, so we’re always particularly happy to see him playing with some Kanektok chrome.
Nice fish, Mike.
More Kanektok Kings
It’s been amazing and a treat to watch this guy fish this river for the last 7 years. He seems to attract these fish to his fly like a magnet and he does it with ease, grace, determination, and a contagious smile. He is truly deserving of his nickname “The Hammer”…
“The Hammer” is without a doubt one of the “fishiest” guys I have ever seen!
Having had the opportunity to fish many rivers with Mike over the years it’s easy to stand back and watch………if he would just let me instead of insisting I takethe bucket!
