can anyone recomend a website to read up on the basics of flyfishing. i have done a little in small creaks in new mexico but know nothing about the equipment. like a tippit or the different type reels and what not. i have a small flats boat and have fished the marshes for a few years on regular rod and reel. what kind or size equipment is needed for say catching reds or maybe trout in the marsh and back bays. eventually i would like to get up into trying for offshore fish(dorado and the like) with fly rod. thanks, MIKE

9 ft. 8 wt. rod will be great for the coast. I went to Orvis in The Woodlands and they set me up with everything. FTU would also be another good place to get a good set-up.
