Beginner Fly Fishing Tips
How to go about trying fly fishing?
Fly fishing is often the last angler learned skill, here is the best way to get a basic start.
- Find a fly fishing guide or fisherman with experience. They will typically have the gear for you to have your first lessons. Save the money from buying blindly by instead investing in learning seasoned angler.
- Instead of learning from a spouse or partner; take a class or lesson from an angler that can walk you through the beginning learning. This will save me from having frustration as it can be tricky to learn the rhythm.
- Practice in cleared areas with your fly rod and line without any hooks. Use an open shortcut grassed yard that allows for free movement of the line without any obstructions to catch.
