Hello all.

I've always loved fly fishing. I just never really did it much. I am hoping to change the latter.

It's another way to heighten my enjoyment of the outdoors and another set of skills to try to master. I am looking forward to learning from you folks.

Welcome to the forum.

Amazing amount of stuff on this forum and some very knowledgeable people who always seem to find time to help out.

Hope you enjoy yourself (on here and on the bank)

Right. First off you need several rods graded in line weight, length, colour, shiny/matt, new/2nd hand; say about 12 just in case. Then you need at least two reels to suit each of these rods. Each reel should have a minimum of three spools loaded with floaters (not Airflow), inters and sinkers; again just in case. Then you need a couple of wallets to hold your leaders, furled/tapered/home made. Then you need a couple of decent sized fly boxes for each type of fly/lure. Then you need a couple of day boxes for the flies you are going to use that particular day. Then of course you get to bags; a decent sized one to hold your bankside stuff, one you can wear while fishing (nice little over the shoulder thing, Hardys do a corker in buff), and one for your clarty gear afterwards. Speaking of gear............yep, you'll learn a lot from here!
