Last season, Beattie Outdoor Productions‘ Steven Yochum and Simms ambassador, Tom Larimer, joined us at Alaska West during the first week of our season.

Along with our good friends at Simms, they put together a pretty killer video, that we think explains what makes the early season on our river so special, and today we share that video with you.

Enjoy!


Want to get in on the action? We still have early seasons spots available! Drop us a line for more information.

    Outside of being “born again” by the Spirit of God, I believe that spey casting for salmon might almost be (gotta qualify this or I’m a bloomin’ heretic for sure or an endangered Husband and grandfather) the closest thing to heaven on earth as one can ever find in human experience. I don’t expect you to post this, but I just want to say I have been so “filled up” with joy when I see your fishing articles, that I could go tubing in my waders. Thank you so much for every article written and for the way you take care of these fish. Well done, Simms guys!
