On Strike Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Thien, I buy mine online from the Uk but that is to buy one particular line. It really depends on the type of line you want. Once you have a fly line you will have it for a long time if you look after it. It pays to buy a good quality line first time. Good luck. Paul On Strike.

foolforjesus Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Are you fresh or saltwater fishing Mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman_zx10r Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 Foolforjesus I was thinking of doing both but mainly salt. But could change my mind when I start doing some fresh water. Is there any nice fresh water holes around sydney? Cheers Thien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foolforjesus Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Hi Thien, If your gonna fish both, there are separate fly line ranges suited for both fresh and saltwater. It might be best to contact a fly fishing store and ask if there is an all round line that is good for both. Plus if your gonna get intermediate & sinking lines there are various sink rated lines. Your best bet is to choose what you'll be targeting at least first up, and get a line to suit. Make the call to a fly fishing store and quiz them. In land freshwater spots, there are a few dams up the Blue Mountains, chasing trout & bass. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
