Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations another fly rod question

Not all fly lines float, but for your use, get a floating line. Longer IS better. Easier to cast with less effort "I think". Look at the combo's from TFO. They come ready to use, line, leader, backing, etc. already spooled. You can vary the depth by how long the leader is, and how long you let it drop down. Even with a floating fly line, you can fish a sinking fly. Since you can't use a bobber on a fly rod, you use the end of the line as a strike indicator, or you can attach one to your leader.

I'm sure George will chime in on what line to get.
