Joe Jackson | Squimpish Pro Team
Joe Jackson is a member of the Squimpish Flies Pro Team, a group of fly tyers, anglers, guides, instructors, creators, and industry professionals who share their experience with the fly fishing community.
Raised in a small town in Southern Indiana, a love of fishing, hunting, and wildlife was instilled in Joe at a young age. After 14 years enlisted in the Army, he found Project Healing Waters and his curiosity in fly fishing and tying bloomed into a love and obsession. He started tying in November 2015 and placed second in Project Healing Waters National Fly Tying Contest in 2017. Joe received the Everett Drake Fly Tying Award in 2018. Joe ties flies for all warm, cold, and salt water species with a focus on Deerhair flies. His realistic art flies like the hummingbirds, pheasant, Grinch, Baby Yoda, Bald Eagle, Kingfisher, and others have been sent across the globe. He believes the most important thing anyone in this hobby can do is to get kids out on the water and/or behind a vise.
