DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Werner Herzog Germany

His documentary 'Grizzly Man' and other nature films capture the raw intersection of human obsession with fishing and wildlife in extreme environments.

 Rob Reiner United States

His film 'A Few Good Men' aside, his directorial work often explores themes of tradition and heritage, with salmon fishing serving as metaphor in works exploring Americana and environmental themes.
