JDJ Fly Fishing is a group of friends who get together to fish, drink whiskey, and argue movies and music. Most of our fly fishing content is filmed in our home states of California and Missouri, although we venture to other locales whenever possible.

We are admittedly self-taught hacks when it comes to fly fishing and unapologetic fans of the John Deere Jig fly, the namesake of the channel. To prove the effectiveness of the JDJ, we’ve fished it successfully in the Eastern Sierra, Rocky Mountain National Park, the Iowa Driftless Region, and of course, in the Missouri Ozarks, where it is a popular pattern.

We are not fly fishing purists – just some guys who like to fish different types of water and species, from bluegill to brook trout, and have fun doing it. We also do some fixed-line fishing on occasion.

We film our fishing excursions mostly for ourselves but welcome other like-minded fly fishermen to subscribe to the channel and be a part of Team JDJ.
