    Great fly fishing video showing just how unbelievable the fly fishing in Alaska is for Rainbow Trout, Arctic Char and Dolly Varden can be. Watch this as Peter enjoys just one and a half days of fly fishing on the Wok River while staying at the world-famous Bristol Bay Lodge. Watch him catch more fish than he can handle, listen to him laugh and get excited as he shares with you his passion for fishing. Fly fishing heaven is made in Alaska and is a welcome break from all the Salmon fly fishing. A big thank you to Bristol Bay Lodge and all the guides & support staff for making these trips all possible.

    I would have more fun if the guide would fish too. Me and a few good buddies used to trout fish the Little Bushkill and Big Bushkill waterways in Northampton Cnty PA. It's always more fun when everyone is yahooing:) That Alaska water is amazing. I would like to go try it out:) Cheers from SC.

    beautiful video, maybe more Dolly Varden (char) than rainbows. loved the care the guide took in letting the fish gain strength back before releasing. Looked like wonderful day.

      Robert, thanks for your comments, yes it is nice to see so much love, care and attention given to fish. If we all respect them and everyone thinking that they have to take every fish for the table fishing would have a far better future.
      Kind Regards Peter

      I understand buddy, but that is what makes these trips so special, its something to wish for save hard for then go experience. It means lots more to people who can only do it once or twice. Thanks for your comments.

    Hi Peter, i think itd be really helpful if you made like informational videos ? I like your content and enjoy fishing myself. Im 15 years old and would like to learn how to fly fish for i have no one to teach me. I caught my first palomino trout on the opening day here in PA. Keep up the good work man.

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Buddy, Ok thanks for your feedback, I will look at doing some when I get a bit of time. So you are looking for videos about how I fish, so they are more instructional. Keep fishing and keep learning. Regards Peter

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @ddeboy002 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wow. I am heading up there in June. What kind of gear (fly rod and line) do you need? I want to make sure I have what I need to fish for salmon. Right now I have an Orvis 8.5' heliux. Not sure if it is heavy duty enough, but I would love the fight.

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      David Deboy David that rod will serve you well, it will be able to handle the flies and also give you a good fight after all thats what it is all about.

  • @pokcho2725

    @paulstevens156 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Another great video. Wish one day to travel there, i hear the fishing is of the scale. Do you take care of all the flights, as i have looked before and a bit of a mine field. Would really appreciate some advice. Keep up the good work

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Paul, thanks for your kind comments. Yes the fishing is totally off the scale, its fast, its fun and has to be experienced once in everyones lifetime.
      Yes we are one of the UK'S largest outdoor sports tour operators, we take great pride in offer and supplying the complete door to door package.

      @paulstevens156 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sportquest Holidays Thanks Sportquest, i shall drop you an email today, i am a single angler does this affect the cost or do you run any group trips to this destination?

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Paul Stevens No problem at all. We run group hosted trips fly fishing in Alaska each and every year. You can join our group trips and fish with like minded people. It is also a great way to make new friends while fly fishing for huge Rainbows, Char and Dolly Varden.

    • @paulstevens156
      @paulstevens156 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thats great, thanks. i shall check your website out. Would i also be able to hire my rods and reels from the Lodge? fly fishing for trout in Alaska is another one of my to do things and would love to be able to join a group one year

    @TCUsouthpaw 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've been told trout are especially susceptible to parasites which is why people use rubber nets. Is that correct? If so, how does one handle the fish to protect their slimy film?

    Couple of pointers Get your line on the reel and be careful of stripping your line your leader into the guide

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Peter bruce Thanks Peter, sometimes its hard to remember all the fishing and talk to the camera at the same time.

  • @dangregory5384
    @dangregory5384 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Alaska state law requires that the bead be pegged no more than 2" from the hook- yours is at least 3.5" which results in fish mortality. What lodge are you fishing with???

    • @spencersingleton1723
      @spencersingleton1723 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      The bead can be pinned within 2" or free sliding. Next time make sure you know what your talking about.

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Arvid Persson Are you wanting to travel from the UK? or where are you based as the flights pay a big part in the trip. Rgds Peter

    • @Arvidperssonable
      @Arvidperssonable 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh sorry, forget to mention that. I'm traveling from Sweden!

    • @SportquestHolidaysDestinations
      @SportquestHolidaysDestinations  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No worries you are looking with everything included to Bristol bay lodge all flights etc so everything apart from tips you will be around £6,800 expensive but one of the best lodges in the world. Also we have a hosted one to Canada I just returned from thats only around £4,800 pp we had between 400 to 500 salmon so many we just lost count.
