Welcome to My New Website and Blog!

Please take some time to poke around.  Let me know what you like and what you don’t.  Your advice and input is extremely valuable to me and my webmaster Mark Kuhn (Milkfish)ESPECIALY what you DON’T LIKE!

Email me at my new email address – jeffcurrier65@gmail.com

This new site allows me to add many more tabs, PowerPoint shows, my fish art gift store and etc.  This mass project is about 75% complete.  What isn’t done is my Fly Rod Species section.  My intention here is to list each and every species I’ve caught.  Along with many of these fish I intend to include a personal story about fishing for them, tactics, tackle, distribution and if I’ve painted the fish, some art to go with.

In celebration of the new site launch I’m headed for Europe to fish with my friend, mentor and fly fishing legend, Vladi Trezbunia.  Hopefully the new blog will start off with a bang of photos and stories of the endangered marble trout (Salmo marmoratus)!

As always when traveling in remote areas, I may not have internet.  Regardless, I will post day by day accounts of this adventure when possible.

Here are a couple events to put on your calendar for June:

    Not liking the new format! Follow you everyday and now I have to wade through a bunch of stuff before I get to your post. I won’t quit following you as I love your stories and travels. Hope to fish the Fork with you one day.

    Rick,

    Guarantee you don’t dislike change any more than I. But my new site was a must and a blog within the site makes sense also. Hopefully we can all get used to it. Just work to the blog and then make it a favorite and it should be one click away. And about that Fork day? A Marathon? I can’t remember the date and I’m still in Europe but the 2013 Marathon is coming soon!

I started fly fishing at age 7 in the lakes and ponds of New England cutting my teeth on various sunfish, bass, crappie and stocked trout. I went to Northland College in Ashland, Wisconsin, where I graduated with a Naturalist Degree while I discovered new fishing opportunities for pike, muskellunge, walleyes and various salmonids found in Lake Superior and its tributaries.

From there I headed west to work a few years in the Yellowstone region to simply work as much as most people fish and fish as much as most people work. I did just that, only it lasted over 20 years working at the Jack Dennis Fly Shop in Jackson, WY where I departed in 2009. Now it’s time to work for "The Man", working for myself that is.

I pursue my love to paint fish, lecture on every aspect of fly fishing you can imagine and host a few trips to some of the most exotic places you can think of. My ultimate goal is to catch as many species of fish on fly possible from freshwater to saltwater, throughout the world. I presently have taken over 440 species from over 60 countries!
