Would you like to fish for steelhead that are so fresh from the salt that they are blue

in coloration and not even quite chrome yet? How about traveling to a place where it's highly

unlikely that you will see another angler in a full week of fishing? Today we're heading into

southeast Alaska to find out how to spot and stock big steelhead on small rivers. This is the

Wetfly Swing podcast where I show you the best places to travel to for fly fishing,

how to find the best resources and tools to prepare for that big trip,

and what you can do to give back to the fish species we all love.

podcast in this country.

I've also interviewed more of the greatest fly anglers than just about anyone out there.
