Orvis Safe Passage Carry-It-All Rod and Gear Case – Review

Orvis Safe Passage Carry-It-All Rod and Gear Bag Review

We travel quite a bit with fishing gear, and you might think we have our ‘travel system’ down to a science. However, we’re always looking for new ways to travel with rods and reels that’s not only convenient, but also gets our gear to our destination in one piece. One of our favorite ways as…

Stu’s Tube Mouse – Tying Instructions

How to Tie a Tube Mouse Fly

We dig tube flies, and we really love catching big Alaskan trout on mouse patterns. So, naturally we think mouse patterns tied on tubes are pretty darn cool. One of the most creative (and fishy) tube mice we’ve seen is that pictured above, created by our good friend and professional fly tyer, Stuart Foxall. We thought…

Chum

Fly Fishing for Chum Salmon

Not what you were thinking? You’re not alone. During the early part of our season, many of our first time guests at Alaska West are pleasantly surprised to find out that many of the chum salmon we target look just like this; big, bright, and covered in sea lice. Not exactly the dark, barred up,…

Spicing Up Your Fly With a Bead

Trout flies and Trout Beads

There’s no denying the effectiveness of bead fishing for trout in Alaska. As the prolific runs of salmon in Western Alaska approach the end of their migration, thousands of eggs are released by each female salmon providing millions (if not billions) of protein-rich morsels for our resident rainbow trout, Arctic grayling, and dolly varden. The…

Blackback

Fly Fishing for Big Bonefish

On South Andros, our guides often refer to big bonefish as ‘blackbacks.’ Why? Because big bonefish, like the double digit critters we all dream about, often appear much darker in the water than smaller bonefish. Sort of like this beauty caught recently by Andros South guest, Dennis Poulin. Nice work, Dennis! More From South Andros Bahamian…

Casting on the Flats – Roundup

Fly Fishing for Bonefish

Every month or so, we like to run a roundup of posts related to a specific topic. We do this because we’ve written a lot of articles on a lot of topics, over two thousand actually, and you probably haven’t read them all! Today’s roundup topic? Fly casting on the flats! Learning to cast well under…

Simms G3 Guide Boots

Simms G3 Guide Boots Review

Last year Simms released their latest version of their ever popular G3 Guide Wading Boots. We’ve logged a lot of hours in past models of the G3 Guide series, and we think these are the best model yet. Here’s why. Bombproof Design. By far our favorite aspect about the G3 Guide Boots is their extremely durable…

The Rubber Legged Gotcha – Tying Instructions

How to Tie the Rubber Legged Gotcha Bonefish Fly

It’s no secret that the Gotcha is one of the greatest bonefish flies of all time. We’d go out on a whim and say it has probably caught more bonefish than any other fly pattern in the world, and we use a lot of them. However, our bonefish on South Andros really seem to have…

Rigging With Wire – The Jam Knot

Rigging Flies with Wire

We really like throwing flies to barracuda at Andros South. They’re big, aggressive, and amazingly fast. They also have a mouth full of razor sharp teeth, which we think just adds to the excitement. Monofilament doesn’t last too long around barracuda, so we make sure to use a leader ending in 18 inches or so of…
