Gary Jennings
From Fly Fishing in Salt Waters:
Fly Fishing in Salt Waters publisher Gary Jennings is leaving the magazine after 11 years at its helm to take the position of general manager for Hell’s Bay Boatworks. Jennings said that it was bittersweet to leave the publication. “Fly Fishing in Salt Waters allowed me to travel the world with a fly rod in hand and I am grateful and proud of my time there. The magazine is looking better than ever, but the chance to work with Chris and Wendi Peterson at Hell’s Bay was something that I just couldn’t pass up. I’ll still be involved with fly fishing, but will also be in the marine industry – the best of both worlds!” Jennings, who bought his own HB in 2001 said “I can’t begin to count the number of fish or all the great times that I have had while fishing from their boats.”
Jennings first became associated with Hell’s Bay Boatworks in 2000 when he brokered an agreement between Hell’s Bay and the Coastal Conservation Association Florida chapter where he worked as a regional director. Hell’s Bay continues to be a major sponsor of conservation by supporting CCA, the Bonefish, Tarpon Trust, Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation and the IGFA.
As such, the magazine is in need of a Sales Manager… See the description below:

Bittersweet indeed! I’m so happy for Gary, yet a little sad that we won’t have you at FFISW anymore. Chris, and Wendy have added a tremendous asset to their team. Over the past few years, FFISW has become one of our favorite advertising venues (and it’s been a great read long before we worked with them at this capacity). I’m sure this was in no small part due to Gary’s dedication. We look forward to great things from FFISW in the future, and wish Gary all the best in his new position!
