So, I am now starting to build a relationship with my local Fly Shop and made my 1st purchase today. Let the money spending and saving for process begin for this newbie. I purchased from Nevada City Anglers a nice pair of SIMMS boots and also measured up for some SIMMS waders. I have to get a made to fit for the waders as I am short, chunky, and have small ass feet <grin>. The wader part is fine but my feet are only 7 mens and the waders that will fit me show normal foot size of 9 to 11. I wish! hehehe. So, this SIMMS can be special ordered with the right size sock so I will end up going with their cheapest option, which is not cheap, but will work at $350 later. At the rate I will probably get to fish the wader should last me many years so I figure do it right and it will all work out.
So, I am sure I will be visiting my local shop often in these early stages of getting into Fly Fishing. I am getting ready to take their classes early next year and also, next week, go check out our local Fly Club.
Should be fun. I think this collecting gear stage is almost as much fun as it will be to fish.
Although my check-book will not be happy.
