Friday Night Flies – Pink Salmon Hairwing

Zach Copland

Fish on! Zach's passion for fishing started out early with summer trips with his Grandfather and Dad fishing for salmon around the gulf islands. His passion turned into an obsession when he got his first fly rod and tying kit. He fishes the lakes around the Sea to Sky corridor and the mouth of the Fraser River during the spring and summer. During the fall and winter he can be found on the Squamish River hunting for salmon, bull trout and steelhead. Zach loves tying streamers and coming up with new variations of your favorite flies. He currently runs the fly shop at the Bass Pro Shops in Tsawwassen, so pop on in and get him to set you up with the right gear for your next trip!
