Tackle
You don't have to worry about tackle since I will provide quality rods, reels, leaders, flies and lure for all options. However, If you wish to bring your own tackle here are some recommendation:
Fly: for trout, a 7-8 ft, #3 or 4 with FW floating line is the best outfit for small creeks whilst a a 9 ft, #4 or 5 will do for the larger streams. For spring shad fishing we will use a 9ft, #8 or 9 rod with fast sinking line. A # 9 rod with FW floating and intermediate lines will cover most of the saltwater fishing conditions.
Spin: 6 ft, 1/4-5 oz max casting weight for trout, 7 or 8ft with 1 oz max casting for shad and salt.
Personal equipment and clothing
I provide waders and wading boots (within a certain size range) for fishing in larger rivers. Please let me know your trousers and shoes size in advance . In the small creeks wet wading is the only otption and i recommend a good pair of boots, leggins and shorts. Air temperature would vary from 0-10 °C in winter and early spring to 30-35°C in summer so clothing depends on season. Even in peak summer, short sleeves should be avoided as we might be walking through very thick bush. A breathable long sleeve shirt is highly recommended.
