Apply for 2014 Academy by July 1
In its 6th year, the Bristol Bay River & Guide Academy is the only local training opportunity available for Bristol Bay young people interested in pursuing jobs in the recreation and tourism industry.
The week-long river-side course will teach you the basics of fly-fishing, river etiquette, conservation and fisheries management with local biologists. You’ll also learn what it takes to be a guide and at the end of the Academy successful applicants are well on their way to securing jobs in Bristol Bay’s lucrative sport fishing industry. Through field trips and special guests you’ll learn techniques on sharing stories about life in Bristol Bay with people from all over the world.
We hope you can join us this August!
