Now you too can enjoy quality fish porn in the privacy of your own home - see the new link on main navigation of Chum site.
After all is said and done, the exercise of creating this archive of Slab of the Month/Year photos lead us to a conclusion that had escaped us until now - this is one mutherphucker of a hero shot collection.
LAST CALL! We have one spot left for this trip.
If we could go to just one Alaska fishery before we died, it would be Alaska West's Kanektok. From August 7th - 14th, we're doing it and we're doing it right. Six members of the Chum Nation will join us. And you're invited to be one of them!
Alaska West's Kanektok location is a remote fishing camp by definition. We will sleep and eat in tents. We will responsibly misbehave. And, we will catch silvers, rainbows and dollies till we hurt.
AK West is owned and operated by our industry buddy Andrew Bennett. It is also where good friend and Hustle and Fish producer Steve Apple spent years filming and dreaming up the freak-show that is H&F. Here's our opportunity to join the tomfoolery.
Are you in? We'll put you on the list and/or answer any questions you have here
Camp is the epicenter of one of the worlds most fruitful drainages.
Two Chum faithful per guide/boat.
We will catch slab bows on mice. Lot's of 'em.
We will catch silvers on wogs: VIDEO
If we feel the need, we will harvest healthy fish from a very healthy fishery.
Will will fish LONG days and sleep hard in 5 star tents. In-tent farting will be discouraged.
This is a first come first serve gig. We're capping the week at 6 rods. Shoot us a note and we'll answer any and all questions. 15% deposit locks you in.
