While most despise the long flight I have a routine where they’re kind of fun. I rarely read or watch movies when I’m home. And I never do a crossword puzzle. But on long flights I enjoy all. Toss in a couple glasses of red and an Ambien and long flights are fun. I … Read more

Confluence is about to premiere their next incredible movie, “Waypoints”. On November 8th “Waypoints” will show at various locations worldwide. All ticket sales on premiere night … Read more
I’ve been packing for three weeks of hosting Yellow Dog clients in Africa for tigerfish the last couple days. I leave on Thursday and not back until November 18th. I not only need to be prepared for my own fishing but when hosting you need a lot of extra stuff so that if a guest … Read more
Twenty years ago I started a tradition while running the Jack Dennis Fly Shop. The annual event was an end of the season bash with my shop and guide staff. We put at least six boats on the South Fork and fished to Heise Hot Springs. There we had a huge celebratory dinner and stayed … Read more

I’m getting more time on the water on this speaking tour than I expected. I wandered down to the jetty in Corona Del Mar this morning in hopes to catch something – instead it’s the first skunk of the week. It was still nice to get a few casts in. Jeff Currier Global Fly Fishing
The speaking to Fly Fishing Clubs down here in Southern California is going well. I’ve done three nights of talks and next week I’ll do four more. But this weekend I’m off and I got out fishing today. I couldn’t tell you where we were. Take two turns and go through a traffic light … Read more
Last night all went smooth speaking at the Santa Barbara Flyfishers. I’ve spoke there before and have gotten to know many of the members.

The 2014 speaking circuit begins early for me this year. This morning it’s off to Southern California to begin a ten day speaking tour. As always when I head to Southern Cal, a few rods and crab patterns are packed for a few early mornings in the surf. Should be fun. Just in case … Read more
If I become any more forgetful with age I’m in big trouble. Friends Tim Brune and Josh Gallivan and I decided to fish four miles from the house. Just incase anyone needed to bail early we each took our own cars. When we got there I realized I forgot my rod. Last week on … Read more

We found a spot that was absolutely loaded with toddler lakers cruising the bank – perfect size for eating. Amongst these baby char were some true monsters. There weren’t many, but every outing we laid … Read more
Everything was all “Cool Dude” when we arrived at the Last Chance parking lot today. The day was calm and overcast, absolutely perfect for excellent hatches in the famous Harriman Ranch of the Henry’s Fork. And Granny and I haven’t been to the Fork since way back in June so it was good to be … Read more
