I spent the last 2 days tying like a madman and sorting out my flies for the season. I thought after all my boxes were tidied up that it would be a good chance to share with you all just what goes into a seasons worth of flies for New Zealand. Well, almost a season worth. I still need to tie about 120 varied sizes of my standard dry. I photographed every page of my boxes. Some I carry every day and some only when I think I’ll need them. With the flies from the first few pictures I’d be confident on 95% of days on a NZ river or lake. I’m very lucky to have my father sending me over regular batches of flies. His flies are excellent and are catching fish over here even when he’s not driving them! I also use a lot of Stu’s flies. His flies are well tied and well designed. If you’re coming over and need a full range of flies then he’s your man. Check out his flies here<\/a>. Manic Tackle Project supply the shops. I use a range of their flies from worms to wee dries. I also tie myself. I generally try to tie 6 before every day on the water.<\/p>\n

I’m fishing myself for the next 3 days. After that the fly boxes will be a mess again!<\/p>\n

If you haven’t done so already, please check this<\/a> out and make a submission.<\/p>\n
