FAQS

A beginner fly fisher needs a fly rod, reel, fly line setup (backing, line, leader, tippet), a few flies, and a good pair of polarized sunglassesOur Clearwater and Encounter series fly rod outfits come with a reel, fly line, and backing. Our Vermont designers refuse to cut corners on these value-priced fly rods—each model boasts impressive performance features to help the beginner enjoy success on the water.

For a first fly-fishing trip, you’ll need appropriate fishing clothing and footwear for the conditions, gear (if you aren’t going with a guide service), and a well-designed fishing sling pack to keep necessities within reach. Learn how to pack for a fly-fishing adventure, whether you’re headed to the Montana mountains or the tropics of Mexico.

We recommend a 5-weight, 9-foot fly rod for beginners. It’s versatile, manageable, and works well for trout and bass.
