Fly Fishing Rods

Hi, I’m totally new to fly fishing, but would like to try, I have a cheap 8’6″ rod and reel,6/7, action, not sure? I plan to fish in a small lake or a river with deep and shallow spots, I need a line and whatever else I might need, I’m thinking of a floating line [...]

they each seem to have thier own thing in each price range……is one brand better than the others or are they really the same. I’m looking to put on some new line in the $50-$60 price range

If you normally would use an intermediate line from a float tube in a small lake and you were only able to fish from shore this time would you still use an intermediate line when fishing from shore or would you switch to a floating line? I will be fishing for rainbows from shore.

I have a few Questions about a fly fishing line and leader. 1. I am stuck between these few fly lines, so please tell me which is the best. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=&id=0030121318418a&navCount=2&podId=0030121&parentId=cat602041&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IH&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat602041&hasJS=true http://www.llbean.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?page=scientific-anglers-mastery-series-floating-saltwater-fly-lines&categoryId=50605&storeId=1&catalogId=1&langId=-1&parentCategory=3943&cat4=1112&shop_method=pp&feat=3943-tn 2. I am also not sure about these few backings. So please tell me which is best. And what pound, and how much length [...]

we’ve tried heating the line and the eyelet but just can’t get the eyelet into the end of the line.

Can I use a “regular” fishing reel and line on a fly fishing rod?

I am leaving out of town and i dont have the time to go buy a leader so im just wondering if I couldnt create my own
