Etiquette, rods and reels, and flies are some of the important things you will need to start your adventure and are all important fly fishing accessories.

The length of the rod best for this sport should be about 8 feet and a 6 in weight to start with. Be sure to ask if it has stiff action as that is what will be needed for fly fishing. If the waters you are to be visiting much stronger currents then move up to a 8 in weight.

For a reel best suited for you as a beginner, go with the single action reel. This helps you with your casting and learning the feel of the rod and reel together. It needs to have an adjustable drag on it to help go you maneuver through the currents and to bring in the fish as they fight you.

Dry flies are made to have the likeness of insects which are found on the surface of the water. The saltwater flies actually look like small sea creatures and insects found underneath the sea.
