2016/7/18 10:30:37

The first thing you need to learn about fly fishing is understanding how to set up your fly fishing rod and this must be learnt even before learning how to tie the flies, and also note that there are many different methods that are quite definitive in them when it comes to fly fishing. In addition, you can also be sure that whatever aspect of fly fishing you may be considering, there will be at least a couple of different techniques to learn and each would be right in its own way.

Select The Rod According To Type Of Fish

When it comes to the selection of your fly fishing rod, you can be sure that the proper fly fishing rod will depend on the type of fishing you have planned on catching, and if you were to want to fish in small streams, your rod would obviously be smaller while out in the saltwater it would need to be larger. However, of late, there has been a gradual shift in the trend with regard to a fly fishing rod, which has seen them become smaller as well as lighter and the reason for this is that a lot of fly fishing is being done in small places since there are more variety of fish to land in such areas.

Whatever is the place you plan on going to for your fly fishing, there no doubts that you still need to exercise great care in selecting your fly fishing rod, and some would even take more than a single fly fishing rod with them. As a first choice however, it would pay for you to select a medium sized rod which is rather middle of the road and it means that the rod will neither is too small nor too big, though you should still keep in mind the type of fish that you hope to catch.

At the time of setting up your fly fishing rod, you must ensure that you have chosen the proper line which should be of good quality and which will ensures your fly fishing success as well. There is a valid reason why the line should be just right because there is something known as reel memory which makes the line twist when it is wound, and because in successful fly fishing, you need the fly to be natural as well as straight, you will not want any unnecessary reel memory. In addition, you should also know your knots and even may need to learn about it if you don’t want to have to struggle when preparing your fly fishing rod.
