Rocky Mountain Winter Driving comes to an End

by | Jan 13, 2020 | fly fishing shows

Jeff-Currier-fly-fishing2,500 miles of driving through hectic Rocky Mountain winter road conditions (Victor, ID – Denver – Victor – Bozeman – Boise – Victor – Pocatello) for fly fishing shows along with delivering 16 presentations in 10 days finally comes to an end.  However the tour is far from over.  I’m presently flying to Boston for more appearances this week starting in Harford, CT then on to Marlboro, MA.  The good news is that the forecast back east looks to be easier to contend with than the snow and ice in the west.

 

Despite the dauntingly busy start the run was extremely successful.  It ended this weekend in Boise, Idaho with the Western Idaho Fly Fishing Expo.  This show is one of my favorites due to the fact its in my home state.  I did more casting demos than ever before ranging from “Casting in the Wind” to a new show called “Improve Your Dry Fly Presentations” to “Fly Casting 101”.  There were a ton of folks and it was super fun.

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!
