Fly Fishing Alaska

Fly fishing Alaska for Alaska Trout and Alaska Salmon is a sport of it‘s own. It takes patience and skill to learn and plenty of free time to practice. Though bait fishermen scoff that snobs use flies, while Fly Fishing Alaska, as an excuse to keep bait goo off their hands, Alaska fly-fishermen approach the sport with an almost mystical reverence. Perhaps that's because learning to catch Alaska trout and Alaska Salmon, while fly fishing in Alaska, is a complex process bordering on religion. Yet it is one of the fastest-growing sports in the U.S., now embraced by over 1,000,000 fisher people.

The type of Alaska Fly Fishing Flies we use for Alaska trout fishing and Alaska Salmon fishing are Black Egg Sucking leech, Crystal Purple Egg Leech, Sucking Bunny Leech, Purple Egg Sucking Leech, Egg Sucking Crystal Bugger, Purple Egg Sucking Crystal, Brown Sculpin, Olive Sculpin, Woolhead Sculpin, and the Alaska Dolly Llama.

If the Alaska fly-fisherman is lucky, the passion becomes manageable, second nature, like tying knots in the dark, reading a deep Alaska river or Alaska stream by an undercut bank and knowing where the Alaska trout and Alaska salmon are holding and which Alaska fly to use. But having gone through the novitiate, Alaska fly-fishermen are never the same again. They scan Alaska rivers, seeing water but imagining the life underneath. They concentrate for hours, Zen like, watching the Alaska Midnight Sun dance on the Alaska Rivers, gazing at Alaska streams running over moss-covered rocks, searching for the sight of an Alaska Rainbow trout, or Alaska Salmon, that near perfect fish, as it fins and darts, drifts and feeds in clear Alaska water. Those visions take hold while Alaska Fly Fishing, and simply won't let go.
