The Native American perspective and sharing is very much appreciated. I have been following the Bristol Bay fight, but this angle to the struggle was very much appreciated. Adding in the Native American guides was a great surprise and twist. Well done Orvis. As usual the company goes above and beyond. Greatly appreciated.
Just wonderful! Thank you for this amazing film! I wish the people of Bristol Bay all the luck they deserve in their daily fight to préserve this wonderful nature!! :-)
What a great video. I was born in Nome Alaska, but currently reside in Michigan. I love trout and salmon fishing more than anything else. I would do anything to get over there in get to fish with tristen. i wish there was something more I could do for Bristol Bay. There is no way they can seriously jeopardize that resource. No mines and absolutely no dams. Cheers to you tristen and your whole family.
Beautifully executed presentation of an important ecological and cultural threat through the authentic voices of the actual people involved. This is reality show (aka Documentary) at its best, meant to educate and motivate an audience, while undeniably validating the dilemma. Cheers!
I love everything about this. Studying environmental science this was shown in my indigenous experience/impact assessment class. I love everything about this beautiful culture.
Absolutely breathtaking film. I must be soft this morning cuz you almost had me in tears just outta pride I feel for that young man. That second young man with the braces really just put so much joy into the feeling and ya Just a great film! I wish nothing but much success for all the people up there. I hope to visit some day and learn all you can teach me.

So good. Always inspired by the people of Bristol Bay!
The mining company argued they could have provided a lot of job opportunities. There were also locals who supported the development of mining. Thank god that didn’t happen, at least for now.
In the Bristol Bay area, they have Chinook (king), Chum (dog), Sockeye (red), Coho (silver), & Humpback (pink) Salmon, as well as several species of trout & Dolly Varden. All can be caught on flies. In fact, almost all fish can be caught on fly tackle, if you know how. ;-)
First let me say that the film is excellent. Next let me say that my brother was adopted at birth and is a Native American that sought out his heritage the moment he could and I am so proud of him and what he has taught me about the native connection to the land. And though m`y son is Tristan with a different spelling I instantly connected with that young man and hope for nothing but the best for his future. I also will be watching the fight against this mine as it is a killer for salmon and cannot be allowed. All this having been said I also recognize the fight for salmon in general and am appalled by Orvis supporting and distributing content supporting gill netting. The old man’s words clearly state his culture has taught him every fish caught should be killed. The practice and the attitude are also contributing to the demise of wild salmon. This I do not support. Thank goodness I buy fly gear without the Orvis tag on it
What’s the contact info for Tristan or the company he guides for? Seems like a good stick who really has the passion. Would be interested in booking a trip.
The irony of the Pebble mine is the demand for it comes from people trying to protect their savings from inflation by buying gold caused by massive government overspending....some of which is for the natives.
I would never use a fishing guide since basicly he would be catching all the fish instead of me. By not using one it's my own skill in reading the river or lake etc and me looking at the gps when fishing for say Halibut that catch all the fish making me feel i have actually accomplished something...
That mine is very important to making Solar Panels and Windmills. They do not care what it takes to make their Green Initiatives work. They will ignore and push out anyone who stands in their way.

Hochachtungsvoll... wunderbar!
I endorse this video and its message . . . like that means anything, but I have an opinion. Worked with young people across my 40 plus year career.
Well done Triston!
The fact that this region is even considered for mining in today's age is beyond comprehension.
Seriously unreal video.
Beautiful, just beautiful ❤
Keep fighting the corporate greed 💪🏼🇿🇦
"Our salmon is our gold"
0-30sec. Tacoma commercial hahah let's go places!!
Save the salmon!!!!!
"...wealth is defined by how much you give away..."
Let the salmon run for generations to come

For a Native Alaskan, born free & living off the land, working in a mine is a slow death.
Awesome 🤩! Thanks for sharing! What kinds of fish species are caught fly fishing 🎣?

We have to learn to live together. Neither side is going anywhere
Good video

It’s not just Alaska it’s the entire world we better slow down

who is "they"?
16,000 jobs and 2 billion in revenue…… nobody told the salmon that…… it’s gonna be like Tuna…. Extinct….. not sustainable….
Orvis has gone so woke
Really
