The Allen’s name is synonymous with the Kispiox Valley. Known for their long-standing history with one of BC’s most special steelhead fisheries, they’re just as well-known for their angling prowess, conservation efforts and matter-of-fact approach.  In this episode of Anchored, April sits down with Gene Allen at Bear Claw Lodge to learn about his upbringing, bucking horses and the Kispiox river.
