You're right Flygoddess, there are alot of women anglers out there now. We've got a young lady on the bass tour as well, Jen Carroll. I wish I could get my wife to start fishing, but i'm positive that will never happen. [
] I also am excited about the increasing amount of female anglers out there. Some of the worlds premier tournament anglers are women, and they are very talented at what they do.
I'd like to see more women saltwater fishing. Most are freshwater anglers, but there is alot more opportunity for fishing in freshwater than salt; as there are only so many people that live by the ocean.
I mostly saltwater fish myself, but I just recently posted a message on this board about fishing for trout. If I was motivated enough, i'd actually try flyfishing. But as of right now, I see no advantage for me by doing so. Maybe one day i'll give it a try.
Since you specialize in fly fishing, what would you reccomend for a starter rig? (rod, reel, terminal tackle) When I say starter kit, I mean something semi-compact I can use around a small pond or lake for bream, bass, and other preditory species. Maybe i'll start there if there is a decent combo for a decent price I can purchase.
