Default Re: Fly Fishing?

I did the same this year. I had some Orvis GC to use up and I got 1 of their 4 piece 7 weight rods...comes with a nice case too.

First things first, you need to decide on what species you want to target. I got the 7 weight for an upcoming Steelhead trip (i think the brother in law is backing out..but that's a different story). 5 weight was recommended for trout.

After talking with some fly guys from the Garden State Outdoor Show, it was recommended that I get an 8 weight reel and line. I bought it there from Shu-Fly Tackle & Fly shop.

Next up for me is some fly casting lessons.
