Well you have all seen the flies I tied this winter, but I still find myself double checking the fly box on
September 1st for those early season essentials...
I have started a blog (link in my signature) was just mucking around but seems to have a direction now 
I have written a couple of articles on there... check them out.
My Blog Evolution of a Flfisher.

An amazing site and of a high quality. Interesting reading on how you fish Dunstan. I fish lakes when there is big pressure on the Canterbury/district rivers. I'm alaways looking at innovative ways of changing techniques etc.
I pass through Cromwell on the odd occassion -- next time I'm coming through I will give yuo a call (if agreeable of course)
I'm intesested in you Sticky Caddis and I'm sure it will work up here.
Is there a step by step tying instructions for this pattern?
Thanks in advance

Thanks Taff, the sticky caddis is a pattern I saw back in 2002 issue 27 of Fly life.
Did a quick google didn't find it so maybe I can do one at some stage and I'll post it up???
If your heading through, drop me a line.

Remind me to lend you my book called "production flytying"
Then you'll be able to tie me up a few more
