Unlike traditional fishing styles, the art of fly fishing takes a little bit of learning in order to catch a fish. For starters, the fishing rod used by fly fisherman is totally different from that which one is used to. The rod is substantially longer as well as a lot lighter. While there are some smaller setups available today, these are designed for fly fishing in smaller creeks and streams, but for your standard river or even in salt water, the pole will be longer then you are accustomed to.

When talking about fly fishing supplies, if you have never fished in this manner before, it is important that you take the time to go down to your local fishing tackle shop and see how the fly fishing rod feels in your hands. It of course will feel a lot different but over time this too you will grow accustomed to.

When moving on to the fly fishing line, you will also notice that they are using a completely different scale. In standard fishing you go by the line's test strength, whereas in fly fishing you go by the weight in which your fishing rod is designed for. The lightest rod is a 1wt while the heaviest is a 16wt. while one can find carbon fiber fly rods out there, many people opt and firmly believe in the use of the classical bamboo rod.

Moving on to the reel, you will find that although there is a large variety, they usually come in two varieties. The original fly fishing reel has no breaks and is the simplest reel on the market today. However some feel that they need a bunch of mechanics added to the reel simply because they have spent too many years with standard casting fishing techniques. The basic concept of fly fishing is that you use the palm of your hand as the reel's drag as this creates a more natural fishing experience.

When it is all said and done, there is almost as much fly fishing supplies available out there today as there are for virtually any type of fishing style albeit freshwater bass fishing or deep sea angling. The choice is ultimately up to you and your preferences on the feel of the gear when you are using it in the water.
