Set along British Columbia’s remote Dean River, Oly’s Dean follows 9-year-old Oly as he roams his family’s fishing lodge in the heart of steelhead country. While anglers from around the world arrive to swing flies for legendary fish, Oly explores on his own terms. When he lands a wild steelhead on a fly he tied, it feels like the natural result of his curiosity and the freedom he’s been given to follow it—a moment his parents get to experience through his eyes.

What Bug?
Pheasant Tail Soft Hackle with Jeff Hickman
“Since I was a kid, first learning to catch trout, I’ve been attracted to the realistic simplicity of a pheasant tail soft hackle. It is possibly the perfect trout fly. Pheasant tail fibers naturally look like an aquatic insect larva. Add the movement of the soft hackle collar—like little wiggling bug legs—and it can’t be refused. “This pattern gives me the confidence to swing out my drift, mimicking a swimming caddis pupa or emerging mayfly nymph. For me, the tight-line grab on a floating line is the most enjoyable feeling in fishing.”
Jeff Hickman is a steelhead guide based in the Pacific Northwest. He operates Kimsquit Bay Lodge on the Dean River.

“While reporting on a water sanitation project in Guatemala recently, I caught sailfish, roosterfish and mahi-mahi, climbed 13,000-foot Acatenango Volcano, and visited rural communities and schools —all while wearing the same Capilene® Cool Sun Hoody. “The best thing about this hoody is its multisport ability. It keeps me comfortable in dynamic terrain and variable weather conditions, across activities ranging from mellow to extreme.”
