blog-July-30-2015-1-paul-ostiguy-mckenzie-river-lodgeIf you wondering how the heck the Currier’s have pulled off yet another incredible trip – it goes like this. . . .

 

As most of you know I spend three months of winter on the road speaking at the Fly Fishing Shows and fly fishing clubs throughout the USA and Canada (2016 schedule is up).  Along the way I meet many great folks both in and out of the fly fishing industry.  Over the years at the Marlboro MA Fly Fishing Show and the famous Somerset NJ Fly Fishing Show we met Paul Ostiguy, Managing Partner for McKenzie River Fly Fishing Lodge in Labrador.  We’ve become good friends and the bottom line is Paul is one heck of a cool and generous guy because he’s invited us up to see his lodge.

We’re packed and ready and heading for Montreal in the morning where we’ll meet up with Paul before heading to McKenzie River Fly Fishing Lodge on Saturday.

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!
