About Me
- Jeff Currier - Global Fly Fishing
- Victor, Idaho, United States
- 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 recently departed. Now it’s time to work for "The Man", working for myself that is. I plan to pursue my love to paint fish, lecture on any 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 275 species from over 40 countries!
I love Mt. Shaw and the Belknap range across the lake for a quick hike in the winter especially when it's too cold to hit the big whites to the north. Nice report.
ReplyDeleteDid you guys celebrate with a snow cone?! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to explain that damp New England cold until you've experienced it. Have a great show season.
