Why Should I Support the Project?
With schedules aligned, locations set, and the perfect window for late summer fishing on the horizon, the crew embarks on what they hope will be a week long backcountry trip for the ages, but they quickly learn that the wild corners of the West are anything but predictable.
Exploring themes of art, conservation, friendship, and perseverance, the film tells the story of how the filmmakers met, forged a lifelong friendship, and developed a mutual love of fish and rivers, which set them all on a path as professional anglers, artists, and conservationists.
