The Denver Fly Fishing Show is in the books.  Friday was insanely busy to kick off the season.  I gave a couple seminars and drew on Cliff Fly Boxes all day.  It was great fun and I must have caught up with over a 100 old friends and customers.   Harvey Cohen,...

A Whale of Time Comes to an End

My marlin jinx will go on.  There’s not much to say about the fishing today, our last day of this trip.  Grant and his crew tried every trick in the book to entice a marlin to come from the deep to where I could cast my fly to him, but we saw absolutely zero fish. ...

9 Hours of Fishing – 10 Minutes of Casting

Just my marlin luck, I got to fish first this morning but it was absolutely freezing out.  I’ll guess it was in the upper 50ºs or low 60ºs at the most.  It definitely wasn’t the norm for Baja and by no means good conditions to raise striped marlin into fly casting...

A Striped Marlin on the Fly!

It was nice to get a nearly full night sleep after yesterday.  I say nearly because we still didn’t get to bed till around 11 yet we were on our way to the Cabo docks at 5 AM.  Sammy’s condo is near Todos Santos which is about a 45 minute drive to the boat.  The dark...

Canoeing in December on Lake Winnipesaukee

I’m not seeing much of Victor, Idaho this fall.  Almost immediately after Africa, Granny and I headed to Wolfeboro, New Hampshire to spend time with my family for Thanksgiving.  We haven’t hit a Holiday in over fifteen years so Mom was extremely happy.   There’s...

The End of an Epic Journey to Africa

I made it from my tent in Tanzania to my door in Victor, Idaho in exactly 50 hours.  That may seem long to some but to me it’s incredible and should remind us all what a magnificent time this is to live.  To be able to catch tigerfish on Friday and Snake River...

Last Day in Africa

It’s the final day of week two and the final day for me also.  Today is my fourteenth tigerfishing day in a row and the journey home begins tomorrow.  With all that in mind, we needed to end big and therefore we brought Steve and John to the rapids.   You know by...

Fear with Fly Rod in Hand

There’s no doubt I’d love to catch a vundu on the fly.  I’ve dredged vundu waters for almost ten years now but I still haven’t had one eat my fly for sure and dang sure haven’t landed one.  With both Oliver and I more than satisfied with our tigerfishing, we went with...

Welcome to the Blog of Jeff Currier!

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!
