TWIN FALLS - The Snake River Outfitters and Flyshop’s backroom was set aside for three things — drinking strong coffee, smoking cigarettes and talking flies. //At the center of the room was Jerry “Red” Montgomery, store owner and Magic Valley sportsman legend. //“He could look at a fly and tell you what kind it was and probably who made it off the top of his head,” said Randall Slickers, Montgomery’s longtime friend and doctor. “He was incredibly smart, even if he didn’t look like it.”//Montgomery, 66, passed away Jan. 17. Friends say his fly fishing knowledge and friendship will be missed.
