Hi there, I have recently left the trout waters of Britsh Columbia and am looking forward to a year in Simcoe county living on the banks of the Nottawasaga River. Being a Fly Fisherman I was hoping some one might be able to provide me with a little in sight to local fly patterns? I understand the waters have potential for some good steely, salmon and trout fishing but fear my pacific patterns may fall short. Any words of advice?

I would contact Mike at www.fishheadscanada.com because he fishes that area and would know what flies work best on that particular river.

Thanks for the welcome and the advice from all. I will be heading up that way in two weeks to check the new place, do a little scouting and maybe drop a line. Does anyone know of any fly shops in the area? I'm having trouble locating one online.
