Proper fly casting gear and technique outlined

Fly fishing made simpler by choosing the right outfit and instruction. Jason Lucas advises eight foot to nine foot bamboo or high grade steel rods, carefully selected reels, level or tapered nylon lines, and six foot fly lines for beginners. He stresses a stiff lower rod with a fast action upper, and testing rods with fitting lines. He notes lighter flies are easier to cast and that proper line size and a floating dressing aid ease learning. A separate note profiles Kounalis joining Sky Hither Flying Service as a new instructor after a long career, and mentions Captain Cook’s Antarctic voyage.
