Triston Chaney
Bristol Bay’s Native Son
The Right Gear For A Great Day
“My favorite product, aside from fly rods and reels, is the Orvis Guide Hip Pack. It's the perfect size: big enough for a day of guiding and easy to keep out of the way. When I fly out to Brooks River, I know I have everything I need in that little hip pack.”

Triston’s Top 3 Flies
For Bristol Bay
- Dolly Llama — gets down quickly and offers a lot of action in the water
- Flesh Fly — imitates the flesh of decomposing salmon
- Elk-Hair Caddis Dry Fly — “I don't know what it is,” he says, “but it just gets the job done.”
