Steelheading on the Skeena is more than fishing—it's a way of life, a test of patience, and a testament to passion. Destination Skeena takes you into the heart of one of the most iconic, undammed river systems in British Columbia.
This is where the most dedicated and, let’s be honest, most troubled anglers—steelheaders—spend days, weeks, even months chasing one of the most unique highs one can experience on the water. For this obsessive breed of anglers, it’s never been solely about the fish. It's about the thrill of the chase, the serenity of the process, and the belief that on the next cast, everything could change.
In a world where instant gratification is the norm, steelheaders embrace the grind.

Every take is different. Every take is special. And for these anglers, every moment on the Skeena is worth the wait.
In conjunction with this film, Simms is releasing a limited edition Glades Hoody and Double Haul Rope Cap featuring Steelhead Art from Jess Mudgett .
