Congratulations on starting (or thinking about starting) fly fishing! Below we've compiled a short list of what you'll need to get started. You'll notice on this list there aren't things like waders, packs, or many accessories, that's becuase you might not need these to start! With that said, of course, if you are fishing in cold water, carrying a lot of things, or fishing in specific circumstances, you very well might need them. Come chat with us and we can advise what you will need, and what you can put off on getting to get going.

The most important thing to get started is of course your rod and reel! We are a huge fan of kits here at the shop, they take all of the guess work out of selecting equipment and quite frankly, will work very well for you as you're starting! If you're primarily fishing trout, a 5wt is a great option, if you're planning on fishing larger fish like bass, steelhead, and salmon, then an 8wt would be a better bet.
