Thanks for all the help. Sounds like traditional fishing is the way to start. Maybe Tankara is somewhere (further) in my future anyhow.
On a relatively unrelated note, I hit the pond near my house tonight after work and caught my first fish (a planter rainbow) on a nymph. I've used dries, poppers and a couple terestrials, but this was just a little different. The copper john below split shot and a bobber from a spinning rod probably doesn't count as real fly fishing, but I sure am enjoying slowly moving into this sport.
