Re: Fly Fishing for the First Time.....
I always tell folks new to fly rods that it sure is not rocket science.It however pays to get a casting lesson or watch a good video on casting.Anything Lefty Kreh Puts out is well worth the watch or read.Another thing the fish do not know a good cast from a bad one.So if the fly hits the water you just may be ok. I know cause my wife out fished me many a day with ugly lookin casts. :shock:

Find a club or TU group that is giving free lessons. Start out learning to cast correctly instead of developing bad habits and then relearning.
