After all that cold it’s nice to have some warmer temps to hit the water.
But also, it’s time for an SGFF monthly meeting!!!
Our speaker this month is Justin Crockett, a full-time fly fishing guide based in Texas and Alaska. Raised in Washington State, he’s been immersed in the fly fishing industry from an early age. He began by tying flies for a local fly shop and went on to work in—and later own—fly fishing retail shops in Washington, Alabama, and Florida. Crockett launched his guiding career in 1994, spending years guiding throughout Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula and Bristol Bay drainages.
Justin is the owner and operator of The Texas Gillie, a guiding service in the Texas Hill Country, where he guides for trout on the Guadalupe River and warmwater species across regional waterways. In addition, Crockett guides for salmon and steelhead out of The Yakutat Lodge in Yakutat, Alaska
Justin will cover a wide range of topics about fly fishing in Alaska. The species, seasons, flies, and tackle. He will cover other essential equipment to make the trip safer and more comfortable. Crockett will also discuss different techniques, from catching coho salmon on topwater, swinging flies with two handed rods, to saltwater salmon and lingcod.
As always, our meetings are free and open to the public.
