Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!
I am looking to find a 10 foot rod with an action similar to the sage sp 589-5. This SP model is my favorite trout rod to fish, but I find myself wishing it was longer. Anyone have any input as to a 10 foot rod with a similar action/feel?

Take a look at this. I would also pop into Catskill Flies and ask them for some advice. They have a bunch of maps on their website as well.
Hey All,
I recently acquired a Sage VPS 9ft 4wt rod. I am curious as to which line would be the best pair for this rod. I generally throw nymphs, wets, and streamers. I usually only use dries when the hatch is on. I have tried searching the forums for some input on a good pairing for this...
Thanks for the recommendations. I agree it doesn't make sense to spend that amount of money off the bat. Could anyone mention a cheaper vice that is of good quality? Most of the lower end vices I have looked at do not get the best reviews.
this is not exactly what you were looking for, perhaps it could be adapted.

the recipe isn't exactly clear.
Hey All,
I am looking to break into fly tying after purchasing flies over the past few years. In my search for the necessary equipment I came across this package.

I was just wondering...
Miller's Fly Shop Home Page
I have used them for the past two seasons to get the bulk of flies I use, good prices and quality. I always supplement the supply with whatever the local shops are recommending on the given day as well.
I don't blame you there at all. I try to avoid the city of middletown whenever possible.
The physical address for Thruway is 78 Oak St. Walden NY. It is right inside town traveling on 52 East. Wallkill river flows right behind the building.
I believe lounsbury's down on north st. still sells a small selection of fly fishing gear, I would imagine they have leaders. Thruway in Walden also has a pretty decent fly fishing section as well. They carry rods,reels, and a few combos as well ranging the entire price spectrum. If you catch...
Not to sure how inexpensive your looking, but allen fly fishing has a deal of the week running that includes one of there rods, line, and a few other accessories for $110 in the size your looking for. This doesnt help in regards to the reels but i thought it might be worth mentioning.
