I am returning to fly fishing after a 10 year absence and need to replace a great deal of tackle and would appreciate your guidance. I have spent a great deal of time looking at tackle reviews, etc. So this is not a lazy post or Troll. What would you buy to meet the following needs if budget were not an issue? I will be fishing small put and take (?) fisheries and enjoy fishing: nymph, dry fly and buzzers. I have two rods and reels rated #6/7. I will occasionally be fishing large reservoirs. What would you buy? One rod and reel. What lines? Which landing net? Which fly tying vice? Tight Lines Ian

Thanks for your help - now have the answer. Please see new post.

[is it on the aliminium tube that should be with it ? It came, new direct from the factory in a Royal Blue cloth bag.

Wrote to Hardy's but they ignored me. I have a Hardy Sovereign rod (9' IDBZ1117 ). Not fished for several years so must replace all my lines. Unfortunately I have forgotten what line ratings are applicable. Can any reader offer help? Ian

Jeff, I really appreciate your taking the time to reply - I will now search your ideas. I am really quite desperate to find somewhere - without driving all the way to Pennine/Stocks/Dever/Cold Crag/Hallington - my old haunts. Ian

I am returning to fly fishing after an absence of 7 years. Can anyone recommend a still water fishery one ish hours drive from York? IanUK
