NATURAL RESOURCES ON THE FLY.


One thing that has grown from the Internet is e-zines, which are magazines without benefit of paper and mailing costs. One of the best outdoor e-zines is Fly Fisherman's Virtual Fly Shop (www.flyshop.com). The site offers regional breakdowns and fishing reports from readers.

Features include how-to - ``Designing Flies with Dubbing Loops'' - and travel - ``Bones of the Bahamas.'' The site's current top story is ``Learn how the Three-Point Grip can solve problems and make you a better caster.''

If you can't get away to fish, there's plenty to look at in the site's photo gallery, where readers submit their top catches.

You can also buy gear, view numerous outdoors catalogs and purchase fly-fishing items at auction.

--More e-zines: Fly Rod & Reel (www.flyrodreel.com) is similar in setup to Virtual Fly Shop, has a nifty ``Ask Dr. Buzz'' section, a conservation and guides' tips page, and bulletin boards, but does not have a chat room. Fly Fish America (www.flyfishamerica.com) has informative articles that are not afraid to venture off the beaten track, pages of photos, entomology entomology, study of insects, an arthropod class that comprises about 900,000 known species, representing about three fourths of all the classified animal species. , instruction and fly-tying, and a nice, simple archive section. But it doesn't have bulletin boards or chat rooms.

Included is information about access, resident and planted trout, insect hatches, suggested tackle and flies, and stream characteristics. Local guides and fishery biologists have contributed their knowledge. The book is nicely illustrated with detailed maps of the various watersheds, as well as drawings of insects and flies to help in imitating them.

Fly-fishers venturing to New Mexico's high country to sample some of its well-known and lesser-known water should be thankful for the generosity of the Sangre de Cristo Fly Fishers in sharing some of their secrets.
