Last year I bought my first flyrod, 9' 5wt. A member on here sent me a free flyreel spooled with line, along with just about everything needed to get started. (thanks again Cathy) Circumstances kept me from getting out at all last year. When I could the streams were pretty high. I did practice yard casting and knot tying. I felt pretty sure of myself, so I went To East Hickory in Allegheny forest. ( I live ten minutes from Neshanock)
Just wanted to be alone on my first attempt. I had a very hard time! I do know I do not like loop to loop connection. When I practiced in my yard I had a blood knot. I just bought new flyline and it had a loop on it. Anyway, there is alot I need to learn. I know the jam would be the place, but going out of town. If anyone is going to neshanock , coolspring, etc. I would love to tag along and learn. I'll be retiring this year, hopng to do alot of ff. Thanks Gary
