Lunker,
got my first fly rod about 35 years ago and been addicted ever since. the bets part is you can make of it waht you want. If you want to be casual about it or dive in whole hog you can still enjoy yourself and catch fish. Biggest thing is don't get caught up in too much of the hype. Like any sport there are many ways fly fishing is viewed, just always remember it is about catching fish they have pea brians and don't really know all that much. welcome to the addiction that can be fly fishing.

Hi Lunker!
I'm a fly fisherman also!
Have fly fished since I was 13 -> Now 62.
VERY ADDICTIVE :!:
Steve b is correct -> try not to get too caught up with all the hype!
By the way -> You'll hear a lot about using a strike indicator -> just a fancy name for a BOBBER -> IT'S A BOBBER :!: -> It tells you when a fish takes your bait or fly, what ever it happens to be made of :!:
Also keep in mind that Brown Trout are the Cannibals of the trout world -> They will eat their own even 1/2 their size. -> Soooo! To consistantly catch a nice big Brown, cast a nice big meaty fly or streamer and not those tiny #14 - #22 orderve dry flies.
Those Big Browns want Meat and Potatoes NOT tid-bits.
Now don't get me wrong, I also use dry flies -> I'd suggest you start with non-descript flies (in 2-3 sizes) that can imitate a number of different insects. There are thousands of patterns and can run into lots of money buying them.
Have FUN with your new found fishing sport :!:
Best regards,
