Lani has been fly fishing for trout and steelhead for over fifty years and is considered one of the foremost experts on trophy British Columbia steelhead.

His three award-winning videos done in 1984 for Scientific Anglers 3M on steelhead fishing have become classics and are considered the most accurate and complete treatment of the subject ever done. Lani added another steelhead film to the 3M series, in the fall of 2007 and it was combined with the three original films.
