Welcome to the world of tubing/tooning with a fly rod.
It can be a little intimidating at first because
1- your not sure where to find the fish.
2- your not sure what to use.
That being said, almost all of the fish that I catch on stillwater is with some type of sinking line. You can catch some on the surface with floating or intermediate lines but if you are going with the odds, get the fly down. Buggers and leech patterns are a good place to start in sizes 4-10 in black, olive, Canada blood, and brown.
It's like anything else, put in your time and you will get good at fooling some fish.[

Good Luck!
