Jeramie is a nationally-known author, guide and owner of Dunoir Fishing Adventures in Dubois, Wyoming.
He is a fourth generation Wyoming-ite and grew up fishing around the Dubois area where his greatgrandparents purchased the Ram’s Horn Guest Ranch, in the pristine Dunoir Valley, over 70 years ago.
Jeramie has been fishing this region for over 35 years, and took up fly fishing at the age of eight when his uncle, ranch fishing guide, gave him his first rod. Every since then, he has been fueling his fly fishing habit in Wyoming’s finest waters, learning techniques, history, and ecology of local trout fisheries.
Jeramie comes from three generations of Wyoming fly fishers and can be found tying flies on his great-grandfather’s fly tying vice when not fishing, mountain biking, hunting, or teaching his two children to be outdoor enthusiasts.
Jeramie has a Master’s Degree in Teaching and the ability to work with all ages and abilities when it comes to fly fishing. Jeramie works hard to put you on fish while providing a professional, personable, and a pleasurable fly fishing experience.
