| It’s a Culture of
Salmon and Trout where water, land and fish have combined to create
the most popular flyfishing destinations on the planet.
“Alaska” is derived
from the native Aleut word, alaxsxaq, meaning, “received from
the force of the sea.” It’s a rugged landscape
that’s visited every summer by a salmon migration of epic
proportions. Each year more than a quarter billion salmon stream
inland from the cold North Pacific, bound for their natal rivers
and streams.
The native peoples of Alaska,
the modern migrants, the trout and most of the wildlife of this
huge wild state spend their lives inseparable from and dependent
on those salmon. This is the culture that greets flyfishermen
when they step off the plane in Anchorage. Whether you’re
a beginner or a life-long addict looking for the next big thrill,
a trip to Alaska is a slam-dunk, a place where every angler still
gets a shot at incredible wilderness fishing. But it’s more
than just the fishing that sets Alaska apart. Stunning natural beauty
and an abundance of wildlife give visiting anglers an overwhelming,
almost spiritual feeling of being part of something much, much bigger
than themselves.
