We hope you’re all doing well, as we reflect on another season full of adventure and camaraderie. We’re thrilled to share our highlights from the past season.

We had one of the best seasons in my memory on the Lower American. Not just consistent action but more big fish than normal. Our new Hewescraft project for fishing the Kvichak was a success, still working out some of the details but overall worked great. Read more…
