Or do you think you can catch the impressive, 22lb atlantic salmon on the photo above with a rod from your local supermarket?

By the way, that’s me. I have always fished, from the age of five, and I hope I can continue fishing until I’m old. Luckily I live on the doorstep of a good salmon fishing river!

The type of fishing I most do and enjoy is salmon and sea trout fishing using the fly or spinner in rivers, and of course brown trout and rainbow trout using the fly only. Throughout the years, I have learned how important it is to have the right fly fishing equipment.

But… how do you recognize if it’s good?

Nowadays, many of us shop online to choose equipment and accessories that you need for the sport. It’s easy to be seduced by special offers. But while surfing the Net, I noticed that many companies that put fly fishing gear on sale, only put up some of their worst available. That’s why I decided to start this web site.

Here I will discuss all the possible features you should consider when selecting fly fishing gear.

You’ll read about advantages and disadvantages, and you’ll find reviews and updates as newer or better fly fishing equipment becomes available.

On this site you will learn how to select and purchase essential gear like reels, fly rods, fishing line, waders, and fishing vests, and read how to take care of it. And I promise, I won’t overlook any details. For example, one piece of equipment that many don’t think about is a quality pair of sunglasses. I will even tell what you need for a successful fishing trip.

This site is for beginners, but also for experienced fishermen interested in the latest fly fishing equipment.

I don’t want to take all your time. I invite you to choose the topic of your choice from the table of contents, and start reading. Happy fishing! And Tight Lines.

Stephan.
