Check out Dusty's slide show at Booth #20 indoors for a visual presentation
on fly fishing in Montana.
Dusty grew up in Missouri, started fly fishing at age
eight, and spent his formative years highly distracted by the sport.
He began guiding and teaching fly-fishing in the early seventies while
working on a degree in Wildlife Biology at the University of Wyoming.
Living in Jackson, WY after graduate school he tied commercially for
High Country Flies and guided on the Snake, Green and New Fork Rivers
and in Yellowstone National Park.
After working as a Biologist in Wyoming and East Africa, Dusty started
his fly-fishing school and guide service in 1995. He also served as
the lead instructor at the L.L. Bean Fly Fishing School in Virginia
and still teaches at the Wulff School of Fly Fishing in New York. He
is a Federation of Fly Fishers Certified Casting Instructor and is a
member of the Board of Governors of the F.F.F. Guides Association. When
he’s not teaching or guiding, Dusty gives casting demonstrations
and workshops at sports shows from Montana to Virginia. His articles
and photographs can be found in several outdoor magazines.
Dusty is on the Pro Staff of the Scott Fly Rod Co., Ross Reels, &
Hyde Drift Boats and is a fly designer for Brookside Flies of Denver,
Colorado.
Dusty says, “ I’ve been lucky enough to work with and learn
from some of the best in the business. Jay Buchner, Bob Clouser, Dave
Whitlock and Scott Sanchez inspired me with their innovative and masterful
approach to fly tying as well as effectively fishing the flies that
they tie. From Paul Bruun, of Jackson, Wyoming I learned how to guide
professionally and have fun doing it. Joan Wulff, Lefty Kreh, Macauley
Lord and Floyd Franke taught me how to teach and how to analyze the
cast. It’s because of these folks that I am able to say I have
the best job in the world. I’m privileged to call them my friends.
I hope that I can open the door for you, as they did for me, to this
fantastic sport.”
