Fly fishing is a very popular fishing sport that can be both relaxing and challenging at the same time.

The following tips and tricks are ideal of beginners.  When you’re just starting out learning to fly fish you’ll want all the help and advice that you can get from the experts.

Tip #1:  Practice your Casting
The experts say that the one thing that you need to do to develop a good casting technique is to practice as often as you can.  This will lead to a proficiency in casting that make all the difference between being a successful fly fisher or a frustrated one.

Try practicing against a wall on the outside of your house.  Just imagine that there is a clock hanging on the wall that is at the same level as your shoulder.  Place markers, such as black electric tape, at the 11:00 and 1:00 clock positions.  Practice casting against these markers for a few minutes each day to improve your accuracy and style.

Tip #2:  Rods
There are several things that you need to think about when choosing the right type of rod for you.  Every reel and rod has a certain function that you need to be aware of.

One of the first things that you need to consider is comfort.  Is the rod that you’re using comfortable for you to hold?  If you’re shorter than about 5’5″ you won’t want to use a rod that is seven feet.  Choose a rod length that is easy for you to hold and cast for a few hours at a time.

Most of the rods on the market today are designed to allow you to feel when a fish bites. The shaft of the rod is called a “blank” and when the rod is first manufactured the blank is made from fiberglass, graphite, or other materials.  Each of these blanks has an action that is either: light, medium, medium/heavy, or heavy.  The upper portion will also have an action that is either: extra light, light, or regular.

Both ends of the blank are assembled and the final result is a fishing rod, complete with a handle and guide.  No matter what type of rod that you’re using, the “action” of the rod will refer to the “blank”.  The action of the rod will have a great deal to do with the type of fishing that you’re doing.

Tip #3:  Holding your Rod Effectively
It’s important that you learn to hold your rod effectively under any fishing conditions.  You want to make sure that you maintain good control at all times without gripping too hard.  You can adjust the power of your hold when you’re in the middle of a cast.  This will allow you to minimize the vibrations of each movement.  With just a bit of practice you’ll be able to increase the tightness at the same as you learn to relax your grip.
