"Founded by Kyle Lee, this fishing operation is built around intercepting peak-value salmon at the start of their upriver migration. Lee demonstrates a fast, hands-on approach—throwing a buoy as close to shore as regulations allow, then rapidly setting a straight net so it holds shape in ripping tides—followed by long periods of watching for the telltale bobbing that indicates a catch. He stresses speed, attention to changing conditions, and constant vigilance against local wildlife such as seals that try to pilfer fish from nets." - Avery Dalal
