Enjoy 1990 historical Jackson Hole One fly film featuring Lee Wulff, Curt Gowdy last time together.

Come watch history in the making with the very first film done on the Jackson Hole one fly. Flyfishing legendary guru Lee Wulff and lifelong friend broadcaster Curt Gowdy have their last fishing trip together. This film highlights the concept of the Jackson Hole one fly in protecting the Native cutthroat trout. The true star of the film is the Snake River cutthroat, and some 34 years later, over $20 million was raised to help save these magnificent fish and stream improvement projects throughout the Rocky Mountains. Enjoy aviation legend Chuck Yeager with flyfishing legends Mike Lawson, Gary Lafontaine, George Anderson, Joan Wulff, and a host of guides who have made flyfishing history. The governor of Wyoming came to honor Curt and Lee for their contributions to helping the one fly concept and the team's entire flyfishing supporters as they helped raise money for conservation. This was the beginning of the idea of using friendly competition to raise money, and over 200 worldwide organizations have adopted it to raise money without cash prizes. Join us for a nostalgic look at the past.

JD. This is an absolute gem of a video!! It deserves way more views. It could use a good edit as the sound cuts out periodically. Some of the moments are priceless. I especially enjoyed the Joan Wulff segment at 33:00. I don’t know how inclined you are to get a professional KZbinr to work with you but this is a potential gold mine. I’ve watched your other videos. As historical documents of Rocky Mountain fly fishing they are all good but this one is the best of the lot that I’ve seen thus far. Thanks for posting.

My favorite American sportsman clip is when Kurt Gowdy , Lee Wulff, and Jack Nicklaus were goin' after giant tarpon in costa rica...Jack got into a monster and battled with it for what must have been an hour....finally that monster popped off and Jack, being the ultimate competitor, let out a yell in that unique high pitched voice ...Kurt goes what happened?..you can tell that Jack was somewhat annoyed with Kurt's ill-timed inquiry... its like, from my observation, that Jack's thinkin' ,whaddya' think what happened!..jusf priceless!

Many great moments in the American sportsmen history. Curt's favorite was when Terry Bradshaw hooked a Tarpon and the fish pulled the rod out of his hands then he jumped in and swam after the rod bringing it back between his teeth. Even the cameraman couldn't hold the camera steady he was laughing so hard. I was lucky enough to meet Terry and talk about the experience on a plane flight when he was seated next to me. Curt was the nicest sportscaster when Terry broke in to broadcasting and everybody else was nasty to him. He held Curt in high esteem. I was involved in five American sportsmen shows. Curt and I get lots of TV shows together. He was my second father.

There was an American Sportsman adventure when Lee was in Labrador chasing these giant brook trout...wonder if its still as good up there..

Thanks for your comment .I've had several friends that have gone to Labrador and had incredible fishing with dry flies for large brook trout. From what I understand through some amazing efforts from Canada's game and fish they been able to make progress saving the brook trout. Atlantic salmon has always been a big issue and is not as prevalent as in the time of Lee Wulff. Lee was going to show me his camps in June in 1991 we were to fly their together in Piper cub. He died in February of a heart attack at 86 re- qualifying for his license. I was heartbroken I missed a chance of a lifetime. However in September 1990 I got to spend two weeks fishing with Lee in Wyoming and taking him to the fly tackle dealers show in Denver. I was blessed to know Lee and especially Joan was on my Jackson hole one fly board in the early days of the event. Life flies by very fast

Thanks, Jack! Did the Turcks Tarantula win that year? Lots of young faces in this video. Think I recognized Pete Coors.

[@jdswideworldofflyfishingan4759]

You're right about the tarantula it did win in 1990. Yes it is Pete Coors he was on team with another owner of the Colorado Rockies . There's a lot of young faces and a lot of folks that are no longer with us.
