The Alagnak River, Alaska is an extraordinary stream for all 5 species of Pacific salmon, plus rainbow trout that voraciously feed on the roe left by the spawning salmon. Jim and Kelly Watt and Kelly's dad, Will Bennett, take some time out from silver fishing in August to pursue some of Alaska's most challenging and rewarding fish, the "Bows." "The Rainbow King" is Will Bennett's new nickname when he hooks and lands a 6-7 pound rainbow as his first ever Alaskan "Bow." A fish of a lifetime in anyone's book. Fly Tying... Tony Sarp, owner of "Katmai Lodge" ties the "Sarp Perfect," an extremely effective pattern for the fall run of these lovely rainbows. Segment from his Hooked On Fly Tying, Alaska Big Rainbow Patterns.
