New supplier - Sybai flytying products in stock

Sybai flytying products now in stock

Skagitanglers still continues our effort to expand the huge range of high-quality flytying products we carry in stock. In our constant search for new exciting stuff for flytying salmon and steelhead flies we came across some super nice products from Sybai. Now it's about time to bring these products to the knowledge of all our clients and followers. We know you want it - now we have it :-)


Sybai have a vast amount of different and mostly synthetich made products which fit perfectly in our niche of flytying. We like to tie flies - like our intruders and the likes -with light, mobile and generaly fairly "flashy" materials partly because it's just plain fun and partly because it works. Salmon, seatrout and steelhead dig a flashy fly which stands out and looks different from what everybody elses are throwing at them ;-)
 
We have for a start picked a long list of Sybai materials to the shop and to name just a few we now have: Craft Fur, Pearl Braid Rib, Fine Twist Hair, Angle Hair, Tinsels, and 4 different kinds of dubbing. All of these great products comes in a breathtaking numbers of color variants. We're sure there will be enough to choose from for all fly tiers around. Just take your pick :-)

We at Skagitanglers love to travel to fantastic fly fishing destinations around the world and we have for some time been working on different ways to bring our clients to some of the best salmon and steelhead waters in the world.

Steffen Juhl and crew have some 25+ year’s experience as travel agents and both our companies share a lot of values and ideas on how to make the perfect trip and experience for clients. To make a long story short, Skagitanglers are now able to offer fishing trips to prime locations in British Columbia under the wings of Salmon Junkies.

The 2016 Skeena River Program

Spring Steelhead – the holy grail of flyfishing

We start the season in March/April in search for the holy grail of flyfishing which is swinging for big aggressive spring steelhead. We’ll concentrate our efforts on Skeena in its lower reaches between the town of Terrace and tidewater, where steelhead hold surprisingly close to the river’s edge in shallow tail outs and riffles. Please check out Salmon Junkies´s iconic Spring Steelhead movie here and judge yourself https://vimeo.com/66457561 

 

Chinook - Not for the fainthearted

In July we will target the Kitimat, Copper, Kalum and Skeena rivers, depending on conditions. Skeena region Chinook average 20 to 40 pounds and range up to 80 pounds — and perhaps beyond. The Skeena’s biggest have been known to reach 100 pounds! Please note: Fly fishing for Chinooks is a 100% adrenaline activity. It is not for the fainthearted. On the other hand, for fly fishers after the juiciest kicks in fresh water, not much else can top it. If you still not are convinced please check out Salmon Junkies latest BC film here - http://salmonjunkies.com/chinook/chinook-the-heavy-weight-battle/#more-12236

Skeena Summer camp - "Big Bang For The Buck"

Salmon and Steelhead fishing on the Lower Skeena is unparalleled. Renowned rivers such as the Babine, Kispiox, Sustut, Bulkley, Morice, Copper and Kalum enter the Skeena above our camp and all fish bound for these rivers must pass directly in front of us before reaching their spawning grounds. Only a day or two out of the ocean, at the peak of their size, you will now be able to fish lower main channel Skeena hosts vast numbers of migrating Chinook, Steelhead Coho, Sockeye, Chums and Pinks headed for numerous upriver tributaries. To take full advantage of this prolific fishery and offer a high-quality, high-value fishing adventure – for both novice and seasoned anglers alike. 

Guests will stay at the on-river Skeena camp for the duration of their stay.  On arrival, our staff will pick clients up at the airport, stop in the town of Terrace to pick up any supplies, then transport clients to the river, where camp staff will be waiting to receive them.  After an orientation in camp, guests are welcome to string their rods together and fish for the remainder of the day.

Fall Steelhead

In late summer and during fall we turn to the Skeena tributaries and hunt for surface active summer/fall steelhead. The fall fisheries have in many years been very popular in the Skeena region and for a good reason. Also here Salmon Junkies a Skagit Anglers will be able to offer some unique opportunities. Contact us for more info as the numbers of available rods are very limited

Join us to Skeena main stem and select tributaries in a full 6-day package – not the usual 5 days package – in company of some of the best and most hardcore Canadian steelhead guides available.

The area - Skeena River Valley

Many people believe that Skeena watershed is easy accessible and easy-going to fish. However that is not the case if you want to get most out of a week. Many of the best rivers and spots are more or less impossible to access without a local guide, and the only way to get there is by power full jetboat and local knowledge. Lastly some of the most attractive rivers are licensed with limited access for only a small numbers of people. Salmon Junkies have access to all classified water plus a well selected numbers of coastal river. But perhaps and more important we have probably the best team of Steelheads guides, that will share their darkest secrets and lead you to the fish.

Award-winning Nicholas Dean Outdoors

For guiding and outfitting services in our steelhead and chinook program we have partnered with award-winning Nicholas Dean Outdoors. Based in Terrace and named Fly Fusion Magazine’s Canadian Lodge of the Year for 2012, NDO features a roster of guides whose knowledge of local rivers and fish are unrivaled in the area. Accordingly, NDO enjoys a well-earned, loyal following of Hardcore spring steelhead anglers. We are confident you will find their work to be exemplary.

End of season...almost

End of season...almost

The 2015 season in the Danish rivers and stream are getting close to the end. Most rivers are now closed and salmon and sea trout are left alone to do their all important business of securing the next generation.

Most rivers have seen an above average run of both salmon and sea trout well spread throughout the season. Personally the season has been fairly good with regards to catching salmon but the sea trout has tricked me this year. During the summertime we had a string of bad luck (or just a pure lack of skills) causing me to loose 14-16 sea trout strikes in a row. That’s no joke and not funny at all. But hey - that’s the way it goes and hopefully thing will go my way in 2016. There’s still a few days left of the season in some rivers and streams but most guys have stopped fishing or at least practice C&R on the colored fish which getting close to spawning.

In the shop www.skagitanglers.com 2015 have been our first full year in business and it has been very busy. We have had a lot of communication with anglers from all of Europe who would like to step inside the world of Skagit angling. We have had some great feedback from costumers who appreciate our advises on gear selection and we feel that this is what makes our shop and service stand out from what you get elsewhere. We know skagit and fly fishing and that is what we do! We like to bring our knowledge and expertise to other anglers so they won’t make the same mistakes we did when we started out. The way we have been accepted as the new guy in the class has been nothing but overwhelming and it gives us a lot of optimism for the future of skagitanglers.com and it makes us want to work even harder.

Now it is flytying season all around and we plan on expanding the selection of materials in all categories during the dark winter months. We continue to work together with some of the most outstanding fly tiers out there to bring you new patterns and ideas for the 2016 season. We work hard on some others sides of the world of skagitanglers. We love to travel and soon expect to launch some big news about steelhead and chinook trips to USA and Canada for the 2016 season. Hold on tight it going to be “epic”.

If you enjoy following us and what we do then there’s a lot of platforms where we can be found. We like to interact with costumers and other anglers on the social media world. You know by now that we’re blogging but do you also know that we try to be active on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and the new app called Angling IQ. Out newsletter in the shop (remember to subscribe) is also very popular among costumers and we bring gear and material news as well as stories and the odd bargain offer now and then.

Hope you will continue to follow us and join us in the world of skagitanglers. Always feel free contact us on any of the platforms or simply by mailing us at info@skagitanglers.com
