OK, let's assume that I know nothing about fly fishing for trout, that I am a total newbie to it. First, what exactly is it?

Fly fishing for trout means that you've taken feathers or even fur and attached it to a hook so that when it lands in the water, the fish will think that it is actually a naturally occurring food, such as a preferred bug. This is why it's called fly fishing.

In order for the fish to think that a bug has fallen into the water, you will need an exceptionally light fishing rod and a fairly light line, so that when you cast it out it goes to the location where you believe your fish are. All you really need now is to practice casting.

All right that was the super-easy primer to fly fishing for trout. It was ludicrously phrased as to present fly fishing as simply as possible, in case there was someone out there who knew absolutely nothing about fly fishing. Of course there's so much more to learning to fish for trout than the above paragraph.

The very best way to learn is to go fishing with someone who has a very solid reputation for having caught a tremendous amount of trout. Unfortunately, trout fishermen rarely want a total newbie to tag after them, as they will not know the "rules" of fly fishing and the adept fisherman knows that trout will be frightened by the human voice, thus it is usually a very quiet sport for a reason!

Also, you would probably want the fly fisherman to accompany you to the sporting goods store to purchase your rod, reel, and other equipment to be sure that you are purchasing the right kind of equipment.

So, now your requirements for this fly fisherman's time are getting rather demanding. Trust me on this, that fisherman would much rather be out fishing than accompanying you to the sporting goods store!

Do not get me wrong here, this does not mean that someone who goes fly fishing has no sympathy for newbies, nor that they mind sharing the secrets of fly fishing for trout or any other kind of fish, but the sport just does not lend itself to sharing while fishing.

So, what's a person supposed to do in order to learn all the ins and outs of fly fishing? In today's world the answer will probably not surprise you in the least. You should find an excellent Internet site and study the tips given you by someone who is experienced in this area. Online you will lean a myriad of tips about what kind of rod you need, about the reel, about the flies, and what to do and not do in order to be a successful fisherman.

In this manner you'll also learn about the many species of trout and fish that can be caught by fly fishing, and the various factors that are changing in this sport and how to best deal with them. These are such things as the particular season you are in, temperature changes, elevations, and the geography of the area that is best for fly fishing for trout or your targeted fish.
