Thanks to Peter Moscovitz for the following stream report and pictures from the South Island of New Zealand. Dear Friends, A note to say thanks for helping collect all the gear I needed for my trip to New Zealand. It was all I hoped it would be. The flies were just what I needed and the extra hackled parachute Adams made fine floaters for even the size 12 tungsten headed PTs (the Moskanymph). All sizes of the tie worked as well as during my last trip. If anyone wants to know how to pass boots and waders through invasive-species-controls at the airport, I have the …

Thanks to Steve for the following report. Theaux, I had a chance to get in a couple hours of fishing the day after Christmas. Fished upstream from Big Falls Road, experimenting along the way, and after figuring out how to get a bead head pheasant tail close to the bottom, landed a small brown, about 7 inches. The fish was pale, the par marks were very visible, the spots were brilliant red, and the adipose fin was bright orange/red. A beautiful fish indeed. And thanks for helping with selecting my gear. The Simms Rivershed waders and Cloudveil wading boots are perfect. As someone who has …
