Tyson Radley O'Connell

Tyson is a writer, photographer and film maker from Montana.  He enjoys catching fresh chrome steelhead straight from the Pacific.  His work has appeared in Salmon Trout Steelheader and Fish Alaska Magazine.  Tyson has completed River Poets, a film about the priceless natural resources of Bristol Bay, Alaska.  The film stresses the importance of salmon to the Bristol Bay ecosystem and economy, and focuses on the threat of a proposed open-pit copper and gold mine, the Pebble Mine, in the heart of the world's largest salmon spawning ground.  Fly fishing guides describe their lives in this special part of the world.  Stunning mountain panoramas, amazing aerial and underwater footage, and unforgettable images of eagles, brown bears, and other wildlife demonstrate why Bristol Bay is worth protecting.
