She founder her own company Fly Gal Ventures, April Vokey.
April Vokey is a fly fisher, angler and outdoorswoman.
Her journey in the fly fishing world has been one of her passion, dedication, and unwavering advocacy for the sport.
Guiding for sturgeon and salmon with a local outfitter was a stepping stone, and at age 24, in 2007, she founded her own company, Fly Gal Ventures, to share her passion as a guide.
Over the years, She’s been humbled by talented anglers and a supportive community who eventually drove her to start Anchored Outdoors, an online membership that has been her most fulfilling venture to date.
April shared about:
- April Vokey, originally from Canada, now living in Australia, began her fishing journey with conventional fishing, not fly fishing, and didn’t initially love the water.
- Her passion for fishing was ignited by witnessing a beautiful scene on the river, which she found poetic and inspiring.
- She reflects on the environmental similarities between Australia and North America, particularly regarding bugs important for fishing.
