The boys.
“A guerilla force of blue-collar guides” are the blunt words Kurt uses to describe the archetype of hard working country boys whose careers are an intrinsic property of the Wyoming Fishing Company. On the waters we originate from, the competition is something made of a David and Goliath type tale and what our crew has done to set ourselves apart is a simple concept materialized through hard work. Since Day One, the WFC crew has prioritized excellent service and profound results above all else; leaving the fanciest of equipment and the lavish setting of a fly store for those who prioritize results as a tertiary.
This commitment (and it’s subsequent success) has laid the groundwork for WYAK Outfitters to form and it’s from this stock that our Alaskan crew is comprised. Meet our guides; a rowdy bunch of a small town river-roughnecks who sport the heart of a teacher and a determination to provide you with the most profoundly memorable experience possible.
