We go further for wild water.
We stay longer than most.
Somewhere between the first cast and the last light,
brothers are made.

CAMP LIFE

Far from shore, chasing giants across flats and reefs. Line tight, heart tighter. Missed strikes, long casts, and the ones that stick—saltwater the hard way. Pirate life.

SALTWATER

Far from roads, hunting trout in streams and rivers. Line tight, eyes sharp. Long casts, clean rises, and the ones that fight—freshwater life. Dawn till dusk.

FRESHWATER

BEHIND Dawn Till Dusk

Born and raised in Czechoslovakia, “Kub” is a snowboarding fly fisherman who began his adventure in the fishing industry in Alaska. Since then, he has gradually made his way around the world, exploring rivers and mountains while promoting an active lifestyle through writing, photography, and videography.

He is heavily influenced by his grandfather, Ivan, who loved the outdoors and introduced him to fly fishing at the age of seven. For the past decade, Jakub has called New Zealand home, with a particular fondness for the South Island’s freshwater rivers and the Cook Islands when it comes to saltwater fly fishing.

Nowadays, a Fish and Game Ranger, Kub, is a rare breed of adventurer, brimming with energy, who is sure to continue entertaining anyone who follows his travels for years to come.

  • One of the nicest guys I have ever had the pleasure of time on the river with. Absolutely stunning photography and videography skills! Some people just have "the knack" in capturing "the moment"... Jakub is one of these people... Lifetime memories made. Highly recommended AAA+++!!!

    ANDREW HARDING

  • As someone from Tuvalu, I really appreciate the way Kub captures the spirit of saltwater fly fishing in places like Cook Islands and Kiritimati. His photos feel real and his writing always brings a strong sense of place. Kub’s work hits home for me, and it’s great to see our part of the Pacific getting this kind of thoughtful, beautiful coverage. Fakafetai lahi

  • We had Jakub take photos of our extended family and he was amazing! Getting everyone together - kids running around, older relatives, the whole crew - can be chaotic, but he made it so easy. He was quick, knew how to wrangle the little ones, and just had everything under control. The photos turned out incredible and we couldn't be happier with them. The group photos are fantastic, but the candid shots he captured are honestly even better. Thanks again Jakub for capturing our unruly family in our favourite park!

    MICHELLE JOSPE

  • We had the absolute pleasure of working with Kub for our family photography, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. While Kub is well known for his stunning fly fishing photography, his talent clearly extends far beyond that. The final photos were beautiful, natural and full of life. We highly recommend Kub to anyone looking together any sort of quality photos! Thanks Kuba!

    HANNA HYDE

  • Kuba a jeho projekt Dawn till Dusk Fly Fishing mohu jen doporučit. Kuba je pohodový borec, výborně zná jižák, perfektně chytá ryba a má dechberoucí fotky. Navíc má v autě chladící box plný "DB"! Kubo! Till next time.

    IGOR SLAVIK

  • Top notch photography and videography. Always unforgettable times when out on adventures together. Thank you for everything my friend.
