In my last post I mentioned to stay tuned for the biggest adventure of the year, well tomorrow night I should be on the way to the Seychelles to host back to back Yellow Dog Flyfishing trips followed by some vacation time in Dubai and Oman with my friend Nick Bowles of Ocean Active. It’s … Read more
When my blog starts with a photo of a busted up shopping cart laying in an off-color Phoenix, Arizona canal you wouldn’t expect me to write about a successful fishing day. However not only was our fishing great, but I drove away from La Mesa RV with a brand new van! Fishing on the … Read more
Before the pandemic my schedule was a wild one. In 2019 I fished in twelve countries. More impressive and undoubtedly economically better, I also gave 47 presentations around the US and Canada over the course of the year. It was a productive 365 days, but honestly, hopefully I never travel that much in a year … Read more
My friend Steve Berry knows how to catch tilapia. But Steve also knows his stuff about RV’s and how to wheel and deal when it comes to buying big-ticket items. Today, Steve and I didn’t fly fish for carp. Instead Steve worked his magic on the folks at LaMesa RV (Ask for Scott) here in … Read more
I arrived in Phoenix last night and I’m staying with my friends Steve and Lisa Berry of Nomada Fly Fishing. I’m here to deliver presentations to Arizona Flycasters, Sun City Grand Fly Fishing and Desert Fly Casters. Over the last 20 years I’ve spoke down here nearly a dozen times. I enjoy it because Steve … Read more
The reason you haven’t had a blog to read since October is Granny and I sold our Victor, Idaho home of 29 years and had to be out on November 1st. The last two weeks were the most stressful and daunting time in either of our lives. Packing and transporting our remaining things to storage, … Read more
Despite challenging wind all week here on Cape Cod, it’s been an amazing visit. Friends Rick Wilsterman and Bob Lewis and I managed some very nice false albacore fishing, a few random schoolie stripers and another new species for me, the window pane flounder. And hands down, to see great white sharks face to face … Read more
Rick Wilsterman passed me on to my friend Bob Lewis at 5:45 this morning. Bob took me fishing today and then to my gig for the Cape Cod Trout Unlimited Club tonight. Tomorrow he’ll take me to spend a full day with the Cape Cod Fly Rodders then to the airport for home on Friday. … Read more
Friends don’t nickname me “Monsoon Currier” for nothing. While I may not always bring a deluge of rain, I attract all types of bad weather. Apparently this week its strong north wind. Each of my first two days fishing here on Cape Cod with pal Rick Wilsterman, the wind blew a steady 20 mph with … Read more
When Rick Wilsterman and I left the harbor from Chatham, Massachusetts here on Cape Cod, it was obvious the birthday gods were with me. The wind was howling and there no other boats out. Yeah, our pursuit seemed crazy, but in the cut from bay to ocean, birds were diving and the false albacore were … Read more
I hopped on an airplane yesterday and arrived on Cape Cod last night. I should be packing up my life in Victor but all these fun little things like Alaska last month, Czech the last few weeks and now this trip were planned well in advance before knowing I’d be moving. The main reason of … Read more
Me and Team USA are on our flights home now from the World Masters Fly Fishing Championships in the Czech Republic. I expected to be in deep sleep in this little tilted back seat on the 10 hour flight between Amsterdam and Salt Lake City, but I’m so overtired I can’t sleep. Competition uses every … Read more
