mojobass Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Welcome to the forum, this is definitely a great forum. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with the fly, but there are many members here who might. Cheers. -Tinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twocoda Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 anything pink or orange with lots of crystal flash ...or glo /nuke eggs are your next best bet... Ill soon be putting the pin down and taking the dust off the flyrod.... welcome to the forum and Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinnimon Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Youre local fly shop/specialist will give the best advice in your area.As per size and type.Sreamers would be a way to start.Or just go out to the stream your fishing and flip over a few rocks.Crawfish or stone nimphs would be a go.If there are a lot of shiners then go with that.A single egg wouldnt hurt at all.Most local shops will post on a billboard,water temp and fly types and sizes to go with.Good luck in your venture,see the pros first.Saves me a lot of homework.

cuzza Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Depends on where you're planning on going but a good starter would be a 9' to 9'6" #6/7 weight rod with a medium or medium-fast action, add a 7 weight floating line (weight forward taper is easier to cast) and a reel and you're good to go. Don't worry too much about the reel, it's a line store and not much else especially if you're trouting so spend your cash on a decent rod and line. If you can get someone to give you some casting lessons with your own gear once you have it, that'll help you along. Twocoda - what are you fly fishing for in Decemeber????
