RIGHT ON! and THANK YOU!
Fly Fishing is awesome (the reason Tube Dude likes it is cause the lines are made out of PVC[])
We would be happy to help you along the way, even send you some of our favorite flies to try.
As far as gear, PLEASE! check them out first. I mean shake it and if possible take them out side and try casting. The clerk should also help you with tips on how to cast. Don't ever, ever, (did I say EVER) buy a rod cause someone tells you it is the best. That is up to you. You do have a bunch of less expensive options. Even the SA kit at Wal-Mart are nice along with TFO (Temple Fork Outfitters + full warranty). Reels, get one you can get spare spools or cartridges for. Reel not that important at this point. LINE! get the good stuff (& $50.+) The line will make a cheap rod cast great.
If you have friends that FF hang out with them. I know if you lived here in the City of Salt I would be happy to go with you and let you try different things.
Good luck to you and TIGHT LINES!
