Another Belize Permit!

January 26, 2021January 20, 2021 by Jeff

We woke up to a miracle today. I heard birds singing at 4:30 AM rather than pounding rain. I clicked the coffee pot and made lots of noise to wake up Tim Brune and Wil Flack. We needed to get on the permit flats early here at the Belize Permit Club. It was … Read more

Permit Perseverance Pays Off

January 25, 2021January 19, 2021 by Jeff

As forecasted, our weather today here in Southern Belize was miserable. It was raining so hard at 5 AM that instead of leaping up to turn on the coffee pot, I rolled over. And it wasn’t only me, buddy Tim Brune could have flicked the button but he too opted for more sleep. I’ve never … Read more

Here we go again. We are having horrid weather here in Belize and it looks to be here for a couple more days. Despite a lot of bad weather luck in recent trips, I can’t complain too much about it this time. Belize is known to have unreliable weather for fishing December through February. My … Read more

The Belize Permit Club

It’s good to be back in Belize. This is where my love for world travel kicked off and also where my saltwater fly fishing addiction started. My first trip to Belize was in 1989 and after that I came back twice a year for a while. I hosted trips to Belize River Lodge and Turneffe … Read more

I made it to Belize today. It was smooth sailing once I got through that first hour after getting out of my own bed at 3:15 AM. Friend Tim Brune, picked me up at the house shortly after 4 and we headed for Idaho Falls to catch a flight to Denver then on to Belize … Read more

Off To Belize

January 15, 2021 by Jeff

It has been a beautiful winter here in Idaho. Cold, sunny, blue sky days. Skiers aren’t happy due to the lack of snow but for me it’s been good. Yeah I’d normally be out doing the shows and I miss that. I miss the work and I miss seeing friends and meeting new ones. But … Read more

A Good Start to 2021

January 10, 2021January 10, 2021 by Jeff

It’s hard to believe its January 10th already and I’ve not loaded a single blog, my Instagram or Facebook post yet this year. It’s also hard to accept that I’m not running all over the country doing shows and giving presentations. But starting off the New Year in low stress fashion for the first time … Read more

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!
