Head River Rat #6: Alaska's Rivers & Seas

Head River Rat #6 is a 2014 documentary in Dan Gapen Sr.'s Head River Rat series. Dan and 'Bobber' Anne travel Alaska's tidewater and rafting rivers, where they catch salmon and trout, and fish the deep sea for big flatfish and colorful rockfish. Along the way they share tips on equipment, lures and techniques, and the where-to, what-to and when-to of an Alaska trip, including the fish and wildlife to expect.

Kodiak brown bears catch and eat salmon 30 feet from the camera, and a 103-pound halibut is battled for hours on an ultralight rod and 4-pound line.

Dan Gapen Sr. is known as the nation's Head River Rat. His river books, articles and the Fishing The World TV show with 'Bobber' Anne have taken anglers to rivers around the world, and the Head River Rat DVD series brings that river knowledge to video.
