Fly-Fishing Starter Kit

Over the course of six months, we spent a combined 45 days with the latest angling gear, casting our lines and sinking our boots into different waters and conditions. After wade fishing in both Washington's Yakim River and Idaho's Kelly Creek, and raft fishing on the Deschutes River near Bend, Oregon, we whittled down our selection to the starter-angling gear seen here.
