 Loren Williams of NY mailed to me several nymphs [1] [2] he built with woodchuck fur.  Loren knows that I like to use woodchuck and his flies are excellent samples of what can be done with this critter.  Below are two images. On the close-up I used a black background to accent the white tips of the woodchuck guardhairs.
 Jun-Sep, '03 Two mayfly photos from Rob Knisely.  Brown Drake and Isonychia Bicolor.
 Feb 21, 2003 This lady bug is one of Bob Mead's realistic flies.  I first met Bob several winters ago at The Fly Fishing Show in Marlboro MA, where he is a demonstrator.  Bob truly enjoys sharing his ideas and techniques. If  you have questions or have an interest in his realistic flies, click here to email him.

Four Covered Bridges: (1) The Cornish-Windsor Bridge spans the Connecticut River, which creates the long ragged border between Vermont and New Hampshire. This is the longest wooden covered bridge in the United States and the longest two-span covered bridge in the world. The bridge is 449'5" long and has  two spans of 204' and 203'. (2) Moxley Bridge was built in 1883 and spans the First Branch of the White River in Chelsea, Vermont. (3) East Pepperell Bridge over Nashua River, Massachusetts and (4) Artist's Bridge over Sunday River in Newry, Maine.  This 87 foot bridge was built in 1872. (Photo by Laurie Smith-Frailey)
