Welcome
to My web site
I am in the process of building a web site for the first
time. Be patient with me. This is harder than making rods. If you would like to reach me, use my e-mail jlbradleyrods@gmail.com or call me at 916-996-0020.
This has been challenging year,
the first part of the season, the fishing was good with plenty of green drake in the lower river to keep the fish and I happy.
Then it was a slow start up on the caldera, the major hatches were sparse to non-existent. By mid summer that is generally
slow anyway, had lots of the faithful leaving. We are always hopeful the snow pack is excellent with more to come.
The news from the Bradley household is that we completed our move although we still have a lot of items in storge.
My shop is all most complete and I have managed the first five rods at the new Idaho Bradley Rod shop. Those of you that know me know that I have suffered with a bad back for more than thirty years.
I had five vertebrae fused in my lower back a year ago December. I am doing well, walking daily futher than I have walked
in years.
Covid messed alot
of fly fishing shows the last few years but it looks like we have learned to deal with it.
We be attending three shows in 2023 the first will be;
Western Idaho Fly Fishing Expo in Boise Jan 6,7.
Idaho Falls Fly Fishing Expo March 24, 25
Wasatch Intermountain Fly Fishing show in Sandy Utah April 14,15
I am sorry if I missed you at the Pleasanton show, that is just too far
from Idaho. We have good friends there we will miss. The North West
Fly tyer show in Albany has been one out favorite, we will miss our friend there too.
Hope to see you on the river.

I have a few photos of the rod you gave me. It is really a sweet rod and I did what you said, I really leaned
on it with some very big trout. The best one was about 22”. Mike
