Default hope you can help

First post on the forum after joining so any info would be great. I havent been fly fishing since my early teens and now at 28 fancy getting back into something I really loved as a youngster. Im just looking for some info on rods, reels, lines, flys etc. I will be fishing a reservoir for rainbow and brownies. I want to spend up to £150.00 to get me started and then add on from there. So thanks in advance for any replys and hopefully this will be the first of many happy posts.

Cheers.

Welcome back - you will find things have changed - I did!

There are plenty of great deals in the "Trade Classified" section - look at the top of the page and click the "Shopping" link. For lines you cant beat Pistford Pirate - good lines for less than £20.
You will find loads of tackle talk and revues in the archive of messages on here and there are some good deals to be had on eBay - I just got a new 10ft rod and a reel (with four spools!) on there for under £90!
