Guayaquil

Sammy and I landed in Guayaquil, Ecuador a little after midnight this morning. We were scheduled to get here at 9:45 last night but this is South America. Set times are rarely met like they are in the US. Like after any long as heck trip we were both exhausted by the time we settled … Read more

Earning Our Way There

Hopefully the hardest part of the journey to the Galapagos Islands was the drive across Wyoming yesterday. I crossed the border of Idaho into Wyoming four miles from my house and trudged my way up and over Teton Pass over snow covered roads. Those four inches of snow in Victor added up to over a … Read more

It’s Time

Christmas seems like years ago, yet somehow I hardly remember winter. I’ve been ridiculously busy. I’ve hardly fished. My skis never went out. I only ice fished once. No more! Today I get back on track! In about an hour I’ll be starting a five hour drive to Casper, Wyoming where I’ll meet up with … Read more

End of a Road Trip

Granny and I made it home from California Monday afternoon. The Pasadena Fly Fishing Show was yet another good one and the minute it ended at 4:30 PM Sunday afternoon Granny and I pointed the Explorer towards Idaho and took off. Our only stop was a three hour nap around St. George, Utah. Since then … Read more

Sneaky Surf Perch of Laguna Beach

March 1 & 2 Sorry for the lag in blogs here folks. The California road trip has taken its toll. It’s been great but finding time for anything other than being prepared for the next show and the variety of presentations I’m doing has been hard. Granny and I snuck in some fishing and relaxed … Read more

Locked Out

Granny and I should have been driving the Route 1 along the coast of California first thing today but instead we were sitting in an auto glass place in Novato, California. Last night I gave my presentation “Four Seasons of the Yellowstone Trout Bum” to the North Bay and the MT. Tamalpais Fly Fishing Clubs. … Read more

Striper Time

Been too busy to post.  Had a heck of a weekend doing presentations in Fresno, California and then for the Fly Fishing Show in Pleasanton.  Then today I finally got to take a break.  A break where Granny and I got treated to the California Delta and some striper fishing with Ben Byng.  Good stuff!

The Back Roads of Nevada

Granny and I are on our way to Fresno, California where I start a ten day speaking tour. Whenever I do a multiple day road trip by car I take a good look at the towns I may end up overnighting in along the way. I check them out on Google and search out a … Read more

California Bound

Heading for California for the biggest leg of the winter road trip.  Looking forward to seeing many of you along the way.  Should be fun and I should get some fishing in between shows for stripers and surf perch. Jeff Currier Global Fly Fishing

Surprise Fly Fishing Opportunity for Crappie

Last night was a great night in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I gave a fun presentation and got to visit with folks I met in previous trips here. Then after a short stopover at one of the Kalamazoo Brewery’s with a group of Trout Unlimited Chapter members, Terry Wittorp and I made the hour drive back to … Read more

Michigan

I flew into Grand Rapids, Michigan late last night. My friend Terry Wittorp picked me up and we drove an hour or so to his house which is on the Sister Lakes. This morning Terry took me to St. Joseph on the shores of Lake Michigan. It’s a windy drizzly day but we had it … Read more

Lakers Through the Hard Water

The ice is perfect down on Fremont Lake in Pinedale, Wyoming. Traditionally, February on Fremont offers the best shot at pulling a big lake trout through the ice. Ice fishing is one of those sports that many snub their nose at. But I love it. Every type of ice fishing whether its tip-up fishing for … Read more
