The JJ’s Jigs Crew - a motley bunch of dirtbaggers!!  
(Just kidding...) - They are truly the best in the business! 

Pro-Staff:
Lance "LD" Dunham
A world-class angler, conservationist and top-shelf guide. I’ve have had the pleasure (and sometimes the pain) of fishing the same waters as Lance for many years and his considerate, ethical river style makes him a great to share the water with. Always casual, he makes it look easy. One shouldn’t let this laid back approach fool you. He frequently pulls fish from a deep bag of tricks while the rest of us are scratching our heads. The sting of those ass-whuppins never lasts long though, because right after he releases his client’s third double, he’ll turn to you and put on your line the jig that’s working the sweet magic. He’s good like that... and whether it’s his completely original LD Slammer, LD Thumper, double-deadly Ultimate Dirty Water Thumper, or his exemplary sportsmanship, we all benefit from having Lance as one of the leaders in our sport.

Dave "Dpiscator" Pelachik 
To some, Dave is a riddle wrapped in a enigma. To others, an artist with a rapier wit.  Introduced to flyfishing by a straight-laced father, Dave was bound to be a mixed bag of legendary tying or being the premier angling hedonist...  so far I haven’t figured out which he is yet.  His tying area is cluttered with feathers, foam, photos, empty bourbon bottles and used up cans of Skoal.  This is where he’s happiest. Twice yearly, he cleans his man-cave, usually when he can’t find his vise.   Seriously, I know that he ties hundreds of patterns before he fine tunes the fly or jig to the one version that works the best. Then, that fly or jig makes the cut to be in the exclusive company of his box. I steal them from him constantly. Why? They work. Really well. Spend enough time with "Dpiscator" and you realize he’s obsessed with figuring out exactly what fish want to eat. His ingenious approach, fish-contagious talent, and tying aptitude have contributed to his success. Add a wholehearted love for the sport and his spirited, rebellious nature and you start to better understand his patterns and the passions that helped create them.  Thankfully, his creations are available for us not-so-brilliant-tiers and his proven patterns should be on your line.   - Joe Martins, Swede’s Fly Shop, Spokane, WA


Joel "Bubby" Pelachik - He’s working hard....  






















.... and someday he will be a better tyer than his old man!
