Thinking of getting in to fly fishing...

Tons of good rods out there. Good line and tippet is super important.
My old man put a fly rod in my hands when I was a kid and sent me through the mountain laurel to hunt native brookies, hanging up my line and rod for an hour before I got to the water. All it did was made me hate fly rods.
But we lived on a lake and I'd break one out for panfish. It was a blast.
Tying flies is fun, too.
You'll enjoy it, Andrew!!!
