John West Salmon In Flying Tackle

John West Australia has launched a sequel to the classic salmon fisher vs bear TV ad, “Flying Fish Tackle”, set on Brooks Falls, in Katmai National Monument on the Alaskan Penninsula. Salmon leap their way up a waterfall, awaited by eager bears. A keen salmon fisherman in yellow waders jumps in to grab his catch. He waves the fish at the bear in a gesture of triumph.

“Driven by primordial instinct the salmon hurl themselves upstream to spawn in the same tranquil pools where they were born. Given the toughest hazards of this journey, only the fittest richest tasting red salmon make it this far. Which is why others, driven by their instincts of their own, are waiting. John West endures the worst to bring you the best.”
