This extraordinary new design was rigorously tested to perform in the most demanding conditions, the all-new Helios™ D Fly Rod is the go-everywhere, fish-anything option for anglers demanding effortless all-day casting from a rod that pushes the bounds of durability. From tight-quarter trout streams to double hauling on salt flats, the Helios D series delivers a crisp and balanced feel with more lifting power when fish make blitzing runs under the boat or thrashes at the net. With the world’s most accurate fly rod in your hands, anything is possible.

Totally enlightened. Steadfast and stylish, Guru has long set a standard for excellence as a rugged, fully machined, and ultra-reliable reel at a great price. By increasing the arbor to a larger diameter and making the spool narrower—all the while decreasing its total weight and parts—Guru S takes it to another level. We’ve opened the porting to reduce weight and improve line drying, and integrated the counterbalance. We even introduced a curved cross-section for structural stability. Taking your game to fishing nirvana, this will be your Guru for life.

Built for years of work and engineered to reduce weight and bulk without sacrificing durability, these ultraversatile waders have a 4-layer, 5.6-oz 100% recycled material package treated with a DWR finish made without intentionally added PFAS, an intuitive feature set, a YKK® waterproof zipper, and an innovative evolution of sizing, patterning and fit. Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory.

Lighter weight for wet wading, flats fishing and hikes, our River Salts offer excellent performance and durability in both fresh and salt water; with Vibram® Megagrip soles for traction across a wide range of surfaces. Codeveloped with Danner® and crafted in Portland, Oregon, with imported parts.

The Amplitude Smooth series of lines are, simply put, the highest-performance smooth fly lines in the world. With up to five times less drag and eight times the durability of traditional lines, this will change the way you look at fly line performance. Built a half-size heavy, the Amplitude Smooth MPX taper starts where the GPX left off. Redesigned with more mass toward the front of the head, the MPX provides the same benefits of the GPX, with an added emphasis on presentation. The power is still there, only with an added bit of finesse. Meet your new best friend.

"If the earth was flat, this would be the edge.  Fishing as unreal as the location"

St Brandon provides the most spectacular wade Bonefishing you will ever encounter. St Brandon’s Bonefish average 5lb - 6lb (weighed), with most guests getting opportunities at fish weighing between 9lb -12lb during the week.

St Brandon is also home to large numbers of Indo-Pacific Permit. If you’re serious about Permit, St Brandon is a must!

St Brandon isn’t a place where anglers are going to get shots at GTs everyday. Large Bluefin Trevally are around in good numbers. Other notable fish species one can encounter on the flats include Golden, Yellow Dot and Green Spot Trevally.

"Top 5 best water to fish in the US hands down"

Wind River Canyon (Upper & Lower)
The Wind River Canyon is second to none, the Browns, Rainbows, Cutthroat, Cutt-Bows, and Carp, who live here are, just plain, BIG! Our exclusive access to guiding the Wind River Canyon with the only commercial outfitting permit issued by the Shoshone and Arapaho Tribes of the Wind River Reservation allows us to focus on conservation. Our 29 years and counting mantra: “we are on the side of the fish.” What this really amounts to is we follow a self-imposed two boat/day limit in the Wind River Canyon. We are convinced this keeps the pressure to a minimum and allows the big fish room to roam and not develop the “spookiness” that other fisheries experience from too much angling pressure. 

"A Punta Allen standby for me that always delivers"

"Rugged and rowdy fly fishing down under"

Red dirt roads and remote river systems, Cape York is an iconic part of Northern Australia. It is no secret that Cape York is a fishing mecca. From large T.Anak Permit to hard fighting Barramundi this is one of the most exciting places to bend a fly rod Downunder.

Cape York offers an extensive array of fly fishing terrain and it is not uncommon to encounter over twenty-five species in a weeks fishing.

Anak Permit, an endemic species of Australia is a huge draw card for the Cape York flats, along with Blue Bastards, Golden Trevally, Tuskies, and the odd large GT. The river systems are full of life – Barramundi, Mangrove Jack, and Queenfish are all regularly encountered.

"Remarkable species caught in an extraordinary place"

Since exploratory trips began in 2008, the Mnyera and Ruhudji Rivers in southwestern Tanzania have earned a global reputation. These rivers host some of the largest tigerfish on Earth, with specimens ranging from 10–25 lbs.
