Testing, Testing 1, 2, 3

February 7, 2017July 7, 2010 by Jeff

Believe it or not, I don’t fish every day, but I do think about it. That’s why I did some more camera testing today. Granny and I went on a fantastic hike and ended up on top of Packsaddle Ridge. I practiced my close up shots on wildflowers all along the way and saw a … Read more

Packing for Norway

February 7, 2017July 4, 2010 by Jeff

July 5, 2010 The 4th of July came upon us fast this year. It was such a cold and nasty spring followed by a cool and windy start to the summer that when the calendar dropped to July the other day I was shocked. It will be winter before we know it! While Granny had … Read more

Tiny Trout

February 7, 2017July 1, 2010 by Jeff

July 1, 2010 I’ve been chasing big trout, big weird fish, saltwater fish and you name it all year. Yesterday Granny and I just wanted to catch some tiny trout on a small stream that may never get fished. Small trout can be some of the most impressively colored fish in freshwater. Jeff Currier … Read more

Very High on the Big Hole

February 7, 2017June 29, 2010 by Jeff

June 27-28, 2010 The summer is only a week old and seems to be absolutely screaming past. My Henry’s Fork Marathon is history and this past weekend, a trip I’ve awaited nine months, came and went so fast I can’t believe it. The trip was to the Big Hole River in Montana with friend Scott … Read more

The HF Marathon

February 7, 2017June 24, 2010 by Jeff

June 22, 2010 There’s nothing like the longest days of the year. Being able to spend fifteen hours or more outdoors in daylight can’t be beat. That’s why twenty-four years ago I came up with the “Marathon”. The Marathon is basically my longest day of fishing of the year. What I mean is actual hours … Read more

Granny and I are just home from our holiest fly fishing weekend of the year, the opener of the Harriman Ranch section on the Henry’s Fork. For those unfamiliar with the Ranch of the Henry’s Fork, this is considered the finest and most sacred dry fly fishery in the world. It opens on June 15 … Read more

June 10, 2010 Today Granny and I teamed up for the annual Bass on the Fly tournament at Ririe Reservoir near Idaho Falls, Idaho. This is a really fun fly fishing only contest for smallmouth bass. I have been in all three previous contests with my regular teammate, Weldon Jones. Weldon is out of town … Read more

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!
