Your Questions About Rods
James asks…
What is the best method and fly for fishing trout with a fly rod?
Im going fly fishing in two weeks and want to know which fly will work best for catching trout
flyfishingnets.org answers:
The best method in my opinion would be nymphing. I've caught most of my trout nymphing. Just read this website, it can explain it better than I can. Http://www.flyfishingjournal.com/archives/fa199809.htm The best overall fly in the would is without a doubt in my opinion and most other fly fishers the woolly bugger, Where I come from olive in size 8 or 10 is the most popular. As far as selecting which nymphs to use and which sizes to use, I can't really tell you that because I've probably never fished the river you'll be fishing so try to look it up on the Internet or talk to someone who knows.
Steven asks…
What is the best kind of fly fishing rod?
flyfishingnets.org answers:
Sage, you want proof just look up what fly rod has the most fishing records. Peope who break Sage rods on fish nick the blank with flies that cause abrasions that will break any rod. And sage comes with a warranty that will replace the rod you may break with a small send in charge. G-Loomis and St. Croix also make very good rods and if you can't afford one there are plenty of great rods made by Cabelas. Hope this helped but the guys above me are right, different rods have different feels and attract different kinds of fisherman, what is right for one may have the wrong feel for another fisherman. You will just have to experiment and find out what your taste is,

George asks…
Fly fishing rod quality makes difference?
Well obviously it does, but in what ways?
flyfishingnets.org answers:
With most quality fishing rods, you will get a lifetime warranty for the original owner, you just pay anywhere from 25.00 to 45.00 dollars and companies replace the whole rod. Most will inspect to make sure you haven't broke your rod on purpose, but… Some it is a no-fault lifetime warranty meaning if you break the rod on purpose… The company will replace it. Most quality rods are very sensitive, by saying that… I mean you can detect subtle takes from fish, and set the hook to get them. Besides if fishing, is something you are serious about, why not treat yourself… With something that will last you many, many, fishing seasons. And don't forget to match it up with a decent reel. If you shop around, you will find you don't really have to pay outrageous high prices… For a rod, and reel, that is considered good quality. Just remember to research the warranties. Forgot to say if you take care of your gear, it will take care of you, fly rods require care… Unlike other rods. Many will abuse fly rods, thinking that they are like those other rods… That can take a lot of abuse. Most rod breaks are from human error.
