One Fly Fishing Show Down

blog-Jan-6-2014-1-jeff-currier-denver-fly-fishing-showThe Denver Fly Fishing Show is in the books.  Friday was insanely busy to kick off the season.  I gave a couple seminars and drew on Cliff Fly Boxes all day.  It was great fun and I must have caught up with over a 100 old friends and customers.

 

blog-Jan-6-2014-2-jeff-currier-fish-art-giftsHarvey Cohen, the man who puts my fish art on numerous products, joined me for the weekend.  Harvey showed off many of our new goods.  Folks went absolutely crazy about the new frosted beer mugs.

 

blog-Jan-6-2014-3-flyfishing-for-carpMy talks went fantastic.  Despite snow and treacherous highways on Saturday my 4 PM “Fly Fishing for Carp” presentation was jam packed.  That goes to show that folks are waking up to the big handsome fish down the street from home.

 

blog-Jan-6-2014-jeff-currier-paul-gaeke-kevin-kwigfieldFriday night Kevin Wigfield and I took out our friend Paul Gaeke for his 50th.  Unlike our 30th or 40th birthday celebrations, the 50th was tame and tasty.  We knocked back only a few micro brews and rather filled our bellies with incredible Indian food from Yak & Yeti in Arvada.

 

It was a great weekend.  Next on the speaking agenda is a visit to the Snake River Cutthroats Fly Fishing Club Wednesday night.  I’ll be delivering one of my favorites, “Fly Fishing Through Midlife Heaven”.

    I plan to make it back – don’t you and the rest worry. I just felt like a break from “Currier” will be good for all. I like to bring fresh material each year and this year I just didn’t have enough. Next year or even if we wait 2 years I’ll be ready to crush it again.

    My humble abode will be available to you Jeff as always, next year—however you still might have to arm wrestle Rowley for the downstairs room!

    cheers
    Pete

    p.s. see you Friday Erik

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!
