what is this?
I think there was a post on here a while back but I'm too lazy to bother exhuming the old one if there was...
I got a fly rod late last year in a trade and had the opportunity to attempt to fly fish (again) with my own gear on my last trip out to Colorado. Caught a few fish (2) but spent more time untangling my leader than I did casting.
Anyone else here have any experience with fly fishing? I'm trying to downgrade my 9' setup with a shorter beginner package and I'm really curious about line weights and reel sizes. Does any of that really make a huge difference?
I'm looking for a kayak and going to try to fly fish the lake around the corner with some poppers (next spring when I figure the cast out) but I want to get a good "all purpose" rig if there is such a thing. Thoughts?
