We have been going to the Tsiu River in Alaska for almost 20 years now. Before that members of the Delta Fly Fishers Club in Stockton, CA had been going there yearly too. After lots of pictures and stories we started taking groups there too.

This is a very shallow river with all sand bottom right on the ocean. This river is famous for top water action with Silvers. There are some Char and Steelhead in the river too.

The fishing is very easy so anyone can go here. I will be going here in my 80s if I am still 'above room temperature'.

It can be fish 90% of the time with a floating line. Some use short sinktips too.

The Silvers run 6 to 20 pounds and are really hot right out of the salt water. They attack the fly like a Striper or Dorado this close to the ocean.

We have lots of shop video on this destination too.

We have an annual trip with some room for more if you want to see something special. Keith Kaneko will be the host this year.
