Jay Murakoshi

Fly Fisher/Fly Tier/Guide

Jay Murakoshi has been in the fly fishing business for the past 31 years. His background includes 30 years of commercial fly tying, having tied for such notables such as Lefty Kreh, Ed Rice and Trey Combs. At one time or another he has tied for most of the Northern California shops. His patterns have been featured in Fly Fishing in Salt Waters, California Fly Fisher, Western Outdoors, and South West Fly Fishing.

Jay has been doing seminars and clinics since the early 80's and has spoken to thousands of people at events like the International Sportsman Expo in Sacramento, San Mateo, Los Angeles, sports pro shops and conclaves. Along with his partner Ken Hanley, he conducts on-the-water seminars related to saltwater fly fishing both local and in Baja. As part of the pro staff for G.Loomis, Bauer Fly Reels, Air Flow Lines and Angler's Sports Group (Dai Ichi Hooks) he's fortunate to be able to me in touch with the latest in equipment and supplies.

Jay offers some of the finest custom tied saltwater flies available on the market today. His flies are tied with the highest quality materials available and he only uses Dai Ichi and Gamakatsu hooks.
