| Fly fishing of the shore is popular in Australia and the usa with good results . As for the uk you will behard to find some fly fishing from throms for fish in the uk - which is a same I have not fly fishied so I am not one for advice - but get a good book / video from amazon ( read the reviews before buying ) and practice If think you would have great fun __________________ Richard Fishing Tackle | Sea Fishing |Carp Fishing| Spud Gun | Zander fishing | Fishing Reports | Hunting Reports |

| hi Norfolk boy I have had a few sessions on fly fishing the advice I was given is hold the rod at 11 o'clock for the forword movement and for the backward movement about 1 o'clock I had some practice in a field which seems darft but in your case try on the beach with no fly on :lol: I would start off with a cheap line for around £10 try a weight forwarded line of a shooting head cuz the line is designed for casting further ahead of you and as for your flys I am not sure of you are fishing a lake or in the sea. For flys I used black,yellow,red or white for lake fishing I advice that you go to the libary and get a book on fly fishing best of luck Carlton :P :shock: :lol: 8) |
