Grant and I had a blast fishing together today but our fishing was lousy with only a couple casts to roosters all day. It was a fabulous trip however and here’s a few more pics to look at as I fly home to Idaho to return to the Henry’s Fork. Jeff Currier Global Fly Fishing
June 22, 2012 I’m very limited on time for writing so today will be short and sweet. We got a nice early start. Along the way Grant spotted a dead rattlesnake in the road so I took this close up of his diamond pattern – kind of cool. We’re always careful when cutting through the … Read more
Now that Sammy and I both have big roosters for the week we have very little pressure on us. Grant Hartman drove us a long way today to some unknown beach as kind of an exploratory day. The dirt tracks were beyond rough and the roadsides showed just how hostile this Mexican Baja desert can … Read more
With my hawg rooster behind me I stayed low today in hopes Sammy would get his. I didn’t want to do anything to lessen his opportunity. At 2 PM after a very slow windy morning on the beach, Sammy got his fly right in front of a dandy. 30 minutes later, I shot this photo … Read more
I’ve been coming to Baja for almost twenty years now. I love to catch all kinds of cool fish, but the main target is generally roosterfish. I take roosterfishing a step further and go for my roosters off the beach – sight casting only. It took me eleven days to catch my first quality rooster … Read more
I left home around 7 AM in order to get a couple hours of fishing in on the Henry’s Fork before I did my presentation at Henry’s Fork Day. When I arrived the weather was calm and warm and I walked about a mile into the Harriman Ranch before spotting two quality risers. With limited … Read more
Thursday June 14, 2012 I arrived at Last Chance on the Henry’s Fork at 4 PM and before 4:30 I caught this awesome rainbow on a Pale Morning Dun. It’s not easy to take a pic of a huge fish by yourself but you can see he was fantastic. Thursday’s fish was on the board. … Read more
I’ve set a borderline unfeasible challenge for myself this week of catching one big fish on the Last Chance section of the Henry’s Fork every day this week that I’m there. That’s Tuesday through Saturday on one of the most exciting yet difficult dry fly fishing places on earth. And all but one of these … Read more
Heading for the Henry’s Fork in a few minutes. I’ll be there all day tomorrow. Most of Wed. Only the evening on Thur. Only the morning on Friday. And for a very short time on Saturday – Henry’s Fork Day. However, even on the short days my goal is to handle a big rainbow each … Read more
June 7 & 8, 2012 Trey and Shelby Scharp (Trey is one of my partners of the Carp Classic) manage one of the coolest places in Jackson, Wyoming– The Flat Creek Ranch. This historic dude ranch is located on Flat Lake, the headwaters of the famous Snake River Cutthroat fishery, Flat Creek. The fishing on … Read more
The Explorer shook like crazy all night from strong wind while the rain changed over to a crappy garbage type snow and slush. After a late night at the Trout Hunter Bar and Grill catching up with old friends, this weather you see was not easy to wake up to. However, fishing can be great … Read more
May 30, 2012 After a long day of travelling from New Hampshire I rolled home into Victor, Idaho late last night. Granny was anxiously waiting, not only because I’ve been gone more than a week, but tomorrow is the annual Bass on the Fly Tourney at Ririe Reservoir in Ririe Idaho. The tournament consists of three person … Read more
