John Wood - Catch Fly Fishing

About John Wood

John Wood is the owner of J Wood Fly Fishing, (www.jwoodflyfish.com) a web-based, retail business which offers a wide range of fly designs and a selection of custom hand-tied leaders. Growing up in North Texas John became hooked on fishing at an early age but didn’t come to fly fishing until later in life. Always an incessant tinkerer he began carving wooden bass lures for personal use as a teenager, a hobby that carried over into his early twenties when he discovered fly fishing and tying. The need to tinker quickly converted to fly tying, fly rod building and leader tying, over 30 years later the tinkering is still going strong. John has been blessed to be able to travel the country with a fly rod, taking over 70 species of freshwater and saltwater fish from Florida to Washington state, each experience inspiring another chance to tinker, make new friends and learn just a little more about life and fly fishing. These travels have also afforded him the opportunity to share experiences, new acquaintances and new places through contributions to print publications Northwest Fly Fishing, Southwest Fly Fishing (https://southwest-fly-fishing.myshopify.com/blogs/features/san-jose-island-tx), Eastern Fly Fishing and Flyfishing &Tying Journal. This new journey into fly fishing journalism has revealed a passion for outdoor and fly tying photography. Despite myriad fly fishing related pursuits his greatest joy is spending time and experiencing life with his wife Sharon.
