Who here fly fishes? I bought a Pflueger fly combo set and was wanting

What you fishing for?

the reel just holds the line what wt is the rod & what do you want to catch with it. Welcome to your newest obsession

I had the $50 combo from academy, it was the blue rod with neon yellow fly line, 5/6 weight. It was good to throw small flies with but any bass or redfish flies were too big to handle. After 2 months the rod tip snapped on me while trying to unsnag the fly from a submerged stick, a tiny stick.

Anyway I returned it and put money towards a baitcaster. I say save your $ and get a setup from orvis. They have some nice ones for around 300 I think and good warranties

Temple fork rods. I was trying to remember that. That was the last one I bought and broke the son of a bitch in my vehicle

I've posted this before but if you are a beginner the Cabelas three forks rod/reel combo is very good for its price..

Three forks fly rod..

I needed a cheap back up rod/reel and went with this one a couple years ago, 8weight. Has held up fine with snook/slot reds/smaller tarpon..

I live near Lake Murray and Saluda river. I love Saluda river nad plan on finding a couple of spots for trout fishing ( browns and rainbows are dropped there every year). I think I am going to the USC campus Monday night ofr a Trout Unlimited meeting.

If trout are what you plan on targeting then stick with the floating line. You'll need to look at a few websites to get an idea for what size taper, tippet, flies, etc. It's gonna be confusing at first but very gratifying one you get the hang of it. You might wind up fishing with size 20 nymphs which will try your patience when it comes to knot tying. Best of luck and tight lines.

i hammer the bream on em. I use a cheap pfleuger for this. I use a small sinking fly whenthey wont hit a small poppin bug in green, yellow, black or white. If in Arkansas I use what ever pattern the locals are using. I don't spend much money on it like I did when I lived in New England. I do nail the chinqs and bull bream working the outside of beds. I've found they'll hit a sinking fly when they won't touch a cricket.
