About Us

With advanced training in watershed science, aquatic ecology, and conservation—and project experience ranging from cutthroat to salmon to sturgeon—we bridge the gap between research and fly fishing.

Due West Anglers was born from a passion for the sport and a desire to ask “why?” Too often, fishing advice lacks a scientific foundation, we set out to change that.

By 2019, we had built DWA for anglers seeking informed, science-backed content on sportfish, natural history, and the waters they call home—plus a few good stories from the road.
