And today our Destination is the Yukon Territory and the pristine Liard River system.  Our guest is biologist, educator, and backcountry fly angler, Gabe Rivest. Larger than the State of California, the Yukon offers a true wilderness experience for anglers willing to go the extra mile in search of trophy Bull Trout.  Gabe has traveled the backcountry extensively via canoe and shares how to chase massive Bull Trout in small, off-the-grid streams. Bonus: stories of trophy catches, moose hunts, and bears crewing up canoes!

With host, Steve Haigh.
