Hello All, I am really wanting to get into fly fishing. I have been out 1 time about 4 years or so ago. I did manage to set the hook on a white fish had him on until I tried to net him. I had a very fun time, and would love to get into it again. I have been reading up about fly fishing and will continue reading up on it until I am familiar with the understandings. Money is tight as I am getting married this year, But that will not stop me from learning this year and getting into it. The Fiancé is wanting to try it as well, which is a plus. I do have my Dad's old fly rod he gave me but I am not sure what weight it is or anything about it. I still half to go get it from him. In my readings I have found that the most common and go to fly rod is a 6wt. I will be fishing for Trout. I am not sure if a 6wt would be fit for Utah waters. I also would like to use the fly rod for carp as I love catching them as well. not a big issue, but would be fun to land a hog on a fly rod. That is one of the reason I am coming here. What works best in Utah for the rivers and lakes. Mainly I will be fishing the rivers like the Provo river etc... Also little lakes (Uintahs). Sorry if I sound like a noob. I do not know allot about fly fishing and please forgive me if I pronounce or say stuff wrong as I am still learning. Any feedback and or advice would be more then appreciated.
Thank you.
