I’m doing a project on the novel A Salty Peice of Land by Jimmy Buffett, and I need ten items for a project that describe the novel, it’s kinda hard :/
I love to fly fish and would like to know where i can buy flies,in Canada?
Yes i like fly fishing, Ive spent most of my life doing it. As for flies, your best chance is ordering on-line, i mainly tie my own but, i know that cabelas and bass pro has allot.

I live near many rivers that have rainbow trout (my favorite) and all kinds of salmon. Are rainbows a good thing to fly fish for this time of year and mid winter.
Depends where you are. The resident rainbows will be there all year. If that’s your favorite, target them. If you get steelhead runs then there’s your answer. The steelhead will be found in the same sections as the rainbows, riffles and tailouts. If salmon are the you’re going to have to step up to a larger size outfit. 8 weight is probably your best bet not knowing what river you’re fishing and if you are going to tangle with a ‘nook. If you’re on the west coast, sea run cutthroat are a blast to catch.
I’m a 17 year old girl and I want to learn how to fly fish. How much should I spend on equipment (a pole, string, leads, flies, etc.) Would it be better to buy one of those inexpensive, complete kits that come with everything needed to start?
The best answer I know of, and one you’re probably already gotten, is to buy the best you can afford, and buy it from someone who knows what they are selling and can provide you with a properly matched rod and line and a decent reel. If you try to go cheap you may get an outfit that makes learning to cast a royal pain which will quickly destroy your desire to learn this wonderful sport. You will also need to think a bit about what types of fish you plan to pursue. A good quality 5 wt rod with a floating, weight forward line is a good start.
Can you tell me what equipment I’ll need to get started, and make some recommendations? Ladies, I would really love to hear what works best for you.
