These Rivers Were Made for Two Hands

From the way they bend to the way they flow, our rivers are practically built for spey. If you love fishing on the swing—or want to learn—we’ll show you why two hands just make more sense out here.

In this part of Alaska, with this kind of water, two hands just feel right.

We built our program around the swing, and these rivers deliver. With long, even-paced runs, consistent current, and clean gravel bottoms, the Sandy, Sapsuk, and Steelhead Creek offer ideal conditions for two-handed casting. These rivers give you room to cast and swing effectively, even when the wind picks up or the tide starts to move.

Spey fishing lets you cover more water with less effort, control your swing speed more precisely, and reach fish that would otherwise stay just out of range. It’s also the most effective way to present lightly weighted or unweighted flies in the current styles we use across all three rivers.

Whether you’re swinging for kings in heavy tailouts, skimming surface flies for silvers, or working tight lies for steelhead, the rhythm and reach of two-handed casting bring a calm efficiency to your fishing day. And if you’re new to spey, no problem—our guides are experts at getting you dialed in quickly.
