wrong url on a link, corrected here
Hi VFB,
One of my favorite web surf pastimes is to explore flyfishing and flytying resource web sites originating in other parts of the globe. There you will often find insights and techniques that are new (to you) that were developed for fishing in distant locales.
For example, I am looking at fly patterns from New Zealand, to see if there are characteristics in the way these flies are tied that are mirrored by successful flies in the U.S.
Here's a decent New Zealand pattern page as a sample: http://newzealandfishing.com/trout_fly/
I am dreaming about a trip to New Zealand in two to three years time (gives my brain pleasant thoughts to ponder). About 30% of the time would be flyfishing, the remainder will be devoted to exploring and discovering a brand new country (for me).
Anyway, while exploring New Zealand flyfishing pages, I ran across the link for a site created by Paul Arden out of the United Kingdom. Interesting stuff, a lot of it instructional.

It was new to me...maybe also new to the folks at VFB.
