Groundhog fur Vermont Caddis fly.
For those looking for an excellent assortment of dog and field sport books, I always recommend Coch-Y-Bonddu Books in Wales -- excellent prices, good service and a nice web site.
Coch-y-Bonddu dry fly.
Some folks may wonder about the name -- what, exactly, is a Coch-y-Bonddu?
It's a type of dry fly that looks very much like what we would normally think of as a "caddis dry fly".
The good news for those of you who fish, tie flies, and hunt groundhogs (all three of you!) is that groundhog fur is a very superiour fly-tying material (as is border terrier fur!).
