Fly Fishing India [May 2008]

Jeff Currier's Artwork

At the Denver Sportsmen’s show several years ago I ran into my good friend Jeff Currier. He was working on a watercolor. I knew Jeff was talented; however I did not know that he was a gifted artist. He was applying the final spots on a Snake River Cutthroat that was the best trout painting I had ever seen. I begged him to sell it to me, and he did but with a look on his face like, “I can actually sell my paintings?” Since that day I have commissioned Jeff to paint at least 15 more fish. The paintings are as good as it gets. I could not be more pleased, and they make my fishing room a real work of art.

In May 2008 Jeff traveled back to India in his continuing quest of a large Mahseer on the fly. This time, rather than hitchhiking, busing and riding the wrong trains, he did it in an organized fashion.

Jeff was the guest of the well known outfitter, the "Himalayan Outback" and owner Misty Dhillon of India. As you might expect, the trip was a tremendous success!
