Beginner Fly Fishing Lesson For the Hopelessly Confused

OK. So you have heard about fly fishing and decided you want to have a go at it. But you realized you don't know the first thing about it! Here is a basic beginner fly fishing lesson, including equipment selection, what flies to use and how to cast.

Equipment for the beginner in fly fishing:

If you are new to the sport, the best way to go would be to purchase a packaged deal that includes reels, lines and rods. You can rest in the knowledge that everything will be matched and balanced properly. Also, it'll work out a lot cheaper than buying everything individually. Packages can be bought from the internet or from retail tackle shops. The leader and tippet connect the fly to the end of your line. They are usually made of monofilament or fluorocarbon, which are near-transparent in the water. This means that the fly appears to the fish to be unattached to anything. Fluorocarbon is the newer material, and is much better than monofilament. The leader is around eight or nine feet long, and tapered. The tippet attaches to the end of the leader so that you don't end up cutting off the leader when you are changing flies. Waders and wading boots are a must for protection against the weather, the wet, and against slipping on river stones. Fishing vests are very handy for carrying all the bits and pieces you'll be taking on your day out fishing. Make sure there's plenty of pockets of all sizes, and that the vest has good ventilation if you're going to be out in warm weather.

Choosing flies:

If you are new to fly fishing, then being confronted by the thousands of different types of flies available may be a bit overwhelming. If you take a visit to your local fly shop or a sporting goods store, they will be able to recommend the best fly patterns to use in your area. Don't be shy - ask around to see what patterns are working best that season.

Casting:

Here are some pointers to give you an idea of what is involved in casting. To really get a feel for it, however, it is advisable to get lessons with an experienced instructor. Apart from that, practice! Take the hook off the fly and practice, be it in your backyard, a local park, or out on the water. Overhead casting is the basic fly cast. You lift your line up off the water in front of you, bring it over your head and behind you, then cast if forward again. It takes practice and skill to land the fly in the place you want it. The roll cast is simple and highly effective. It is especially useful in windy conditions or when there are a lot of obstructions that prevent you using the overhead cast. Your line should be tight in the water, then you lift the rod vertically up to a point just behind your ear and do a forward cast. This makes the line do a loop and land in the place you point your rod to.

With this information you should now be able to make informed decisions about the equipment you need, how to find out what flies to use and a good under standing on a couple of basic casts.
