Attention all Skagit junkies – Alaska West alum and Skagit mastermind, Jerry French, has launched his new website, and we think you should check it out!
Earlier this month, Jerry shared with us the details behind the design of his new Renegade series of fly rods from Pieroway. Before that, we let you know that Jerry’s innovative ‘Dirty Hoh‘ fly pattern is now being produced by the folks at Aqua Flies for purchase at your local fly shop.
Well, for you convenience, both can now be picked up on Jerry’s new website by clicking right here!
But that’s not the best part. Jerry also plans on posting on a regular basis about fishing fishing tactics, casting techniques, fly design, and whatever other anadramous awesomeness he’s able to dig up. That means a sneak peak into the brain of one of the most innovative salmon/steelhead anglers of our time.. Not bad.
In fact, Jerry just posted his very first article on the evolution of the Skagit system and we think you should give it a read.
Glad to hear it! I called a bunch of fly shops to find the Dirty Ho (not a big fan of that name) after reading your post about that fly, but none of them carried that pattern. Now hopefully I can give it a try!
Sure thing Joseph, we highly recommend it! In light of the name, it is a bit cheeky, but Jerry would be the first to tell you that it was originally designed for dirty water conditions on the Hoh river. Thus, the ‘Dirty Hoh.’ But yes, its a bit tongue in cheek as well. Thanks for following along!
Would love to test out these rods. They look great.
