A Fly Fishing Tip to Catch the Big One
By Duncan Mcleod

Fishing is meant to be a relaxing day spent on the river trying to hook the one your buddies will envy. As a first time fisher the tricks of the hobby can seem a bit overwhelming. Knowing the best tools to use is just as important as where the best fishing spot is. The equipment can get expensive if you rush out and buy everything fishing related. A good fly fishing tip to remember is fly fishing means just that, using the perfect flies as well as the correct rod and reel to hook the big one.

There are numerous videos and television shows to view that will teach you tricks and tips of the experts. If you cannot seem to get the hang of the perfect technique spend the day watching the pros or make a visit to the library for a book with detailed information.

The artificial flies are used to attract the fish and come in different varieties. These colorful little fish catchers are colorful and created to mimic insects that fish eat. The fly is basically designed in two different types. The dry and the submerged. A dry fly is designed to float on the surface tricking the fish into thinking it has recently landed. A submerged style is heavy enough to go beneath the water to look like drowned insects or aquatic insects in there early stages.

If you have intentions of spending many years at the local water source the rod you choose should be one that is made to last. This requires spending time in the sports department. Do not grab the first rod that gets your attention, it is important to hold it and get a feel for the weight and length. They vary in price from a few dollars to a weeks pay, so the rod you opt for should be within your budget and one you are comfortable holding.

Second in line for importance is the reel. If you purchase your fishing equipment at a department store, some rods and reels are pared up and packaged as a set. This is fine if you only intend to use the equipment a couple of times. For long term dependable equipment, you should choose them separately. Most combination packaged items are not made for long term use which is why the price is significantly lower than purchasing top quality brands separately.

The purpose of the reel is to hold the fishing line and will vary in its ability to avoid tangling of line and quickness for pulling in the fish. A smooth drag reel system is the perfect choice for catching salmon or large trout. An arbor reel will give you the availability of reeling in a larger amount of line with each turn. The more line you can reel the easier it is to pull them in without a long fight with the fish. If you can find a reel compatible with interchangeable spools this will allow you to switch lines without switching reels.

Now that you have chosen the rod and reel of your dreams it is time to get the fishing line. The line will play a large part in how you cast as well as how you reel in. The line should be heavy enough to cast smooth and reel in with snapping. Choosing a light weight is not the best to use for a good cast. It can droop, snap and be more difficult to reel than the heavier line.

One final fly fishing tip is how to cast. Your casting style will become an important part of catching or not catching. While casting out it should be a straight shot, do not jerk and keep it as smooth as possible. For practice before going to the river, make a target on a flat surface in a large area and continue casting until you have your body and line relaxed enough to hit the target.
