Granny and I are home and believe it or not, I could mow my lawn today. Seriously, this is Idaho, we should have at least a foot of snow on the ground and there’s none! As you know by now our Belize trip was a great success. I encourage anyone to go to Belize, and … Read more
November 27, 2012 The last day is always sad. Granny and I’ve had such good time down here at Belize River Lodge. This morning we awoke to developing clouds. This would normally deter us from the flats; however the tarpon weren’t rolling at the Belize River mouth either. So off Granny, Pedro and I went to … Read more
November 26, 2012 I opened our room door at 5:30 expecting a whim of cold air like the last few days, but there wasn’t. A t-shirt would suffice for my first cup of coffee. More delighting, there were few clouds overhead. Today we were going permit fishing with Pedro. For starters we motored right over … Read more
November 25, 2012 I needed my fleece again this morning. It didn’t feel quite as cool as yesterday morning, but still, in Belize you shouldn’t need a fleece. Today we have a new guide, Pedro. I requested Pedro because back when I came to Belize River Lodge a lot he was my favorite. Pedro knows … Read more
It’s never a good sign when you wake up in a tropical fishing area and begin the day by frantically digging for a fleece. This morning was that day. When I stepped out the door of our air-conditioned room it was colder outside. The cold front is still here and stronger than ever. At 7:20 … Read more
Granny and I are fishing long hard days here at Belize River Lodge. We’re happily exhausted from it. Because of this I apologize for short blog entries and falling behind. As always I’ll catch up. There’s not a whole lot to be written of today anyhow. A terrible cold front moved in with a strong … Read more
At 5:15 AM this morning I headed for the Belize River Lodge kitchen for coffee under a sky full of stars. Visibility on the flats was not going to be a problem today. I was so stoked I could hardly concentrate on catching up on yesterdays blog and went on to blow off my email … Read more
After a great evening around the dinner table here at Belize River Lodge with chat about how good the fishing has been it was concerning to hear heavy rains pounding our cabin a 3 AM this morning. I’ve picked up a nickname over the years, “Monsoon Currier” and let’s just say it’s not a good … Read more
It’s been way too long since my last trip to Belize. I’d have to dig back through old journals but I’m guessing it’s been like eight years. I make it sound like I’ve been to Belize often – that’s because I have. Between 1989 and 1993 I went nine times. No I wasn’t rich or … Read more
Today is the end of the longest period of no fishing for me since last February. My wild run on various waters the last two months put me way behind in my work from art, organizing my winter schedule and updating my PowerPoints for winter shows. I buckled down however and have my “work” life back on … Read more
The snow is here which means a little less fishing and a lot more painting. If you need any “Currier” art for Christmas now is the time. I have excellent stock of my famous coffee mugs including many new species such as Yellowstone Cutthroat, golden trout, steelhead, pike, sockeye salmon and more. Let me customize a … Read more
With the seminar behind it’s all about fishing my last two days here in Arizona. Today Steve Berry had a motorcycle race so it was Cinda Howard and I on the urban assault of the Phoenixarea. Our destination was one we’ve been fishing together for almost ten years. I’m honestly not sure the name of … Read more
