Hi, been a member of the site for a while now but this will be the first post on the fly fishing forum.
I’m looking to start fishing Pitsford Reservoir this year as i no longer appear to have the time to match fish due to family commitments, so i will need gear and frankly havent got a clue.Some ideas about rods,reels,line, books etc would be much appreciated, i’m not looking at spending a fortune.
I will book myself a lesson at said fishery for Feb,i know they will help me with all this but I tend to throw myself into these things and get totally absorbed so anything that you think would benefit me would be great.

Many thanks in advance

Chris White
