What You Need To Know About Fly Rods
When selecting a fly rod, there are several factors to consider:
-
Length: The length of your rod will depend on the type of fishing you plan on doing. Longer rods are better suited for larger rivers while shorter rods are better for smaller streams.

Weight: The weight of your rod should match the size of the fish you plan on catching. Heavier rods are better suited for larger species while lighter rods are better for smaller species.
-
Action: The action of your rod will determine how much power you have when casting and retrieving your line. Fast action fly rods provide more power while slower action rods are preferred by many for their smoother stroke and ease of fly casting

Materials: Fly rods are typically made from carbon fibre (Americans tend to call this graphite) or fiberglass materials. Carbon is lighter and more sensitive than fiberglass. Fiberglass is heavier than graphite and provides more durability in tough conditions.

Drag System: A good drag system will help prevent line breakage when fighting large fish by providing smooth tension throughout the fight. Look for reels with adjustable drag systems so that you can adjust it depending on the size of fish you're targeting.
