Why should I buy a fly fishing kit?

Especially for beginners, these kits allow you to get everything you’ll need to make your first casts. The kit may include a rod, reel, line, flies, and a case to protect your rod and reel. It often takes more practice and a little more time to understand the equipment used for fly fishing, so a kit will help prepare you and ensure you don’t forget anything important.

What else does a beginner fly fisherman need?

Beginner fishermen should have the following fly fishing supplies:

·       A fly rod: A mid-weight and length are most suitable to start with.

·       A fly fishing reel: Attached to the end of your rod, it serves to distribute and reel back your line.

·       Fly fishing line: The coloured or transparent string that comes in a variety of weights to fit a variety of reels.

·       Weights: A weight will help position your fly down to the fish.

·       Flies: Artificial items used to trick a fish into taking the bait. They are crafted to imitate certain types of insects or baitfish.

·       A fly box: Found in many shapes, sizes, colours, and styles, fly boxes are made to keep your flies safe and dry and can often fit in your vest or wader pockets.
