Curtis Fry
WITH PASSION FOR FLY TYING
Specialty: Fly Tying
Curtis is an OCD fly tyer living along the Wasatch Mountains in Utah. He grew up in western Idaho and the high deserts of eastern Oregon fishing for bass, trout, carp, catfish and whitefish: basically anything that swum. He started tying flies way back in high school in the 80s when he needed a way to fool high mountain brook trout that were eating giant black ants at one of his favorite alpine lakes. He hasn’t looked back since.
Curtis has had his fly patterns headlined in a number of fly fishing magazines and was a featured columnist for the Salt Lake Tribune writing the "Fly of the Week" column. As well as spending his time innovating behind the vice, he also spends a fair amount behind the lens too. Make sure you have a look at some of his pictures to check out his skills!
Together with Clark "Cheech" Pierce, Curtis runs the popular website www.flyfishfood.com along with a great fly tying tutorial channel on You Tube. Curtis has designed many patterns which you see throughout the Fulling Mill US range: we are really proud to have him onboard.
