>>2567378You'll be just fine with $250
That'll get you an Echo base combo, a couple leaders, some tippet, a fly box, and some flies.
>>2567466No, just a weeb
>>2567467Fly fishing is for homos, tenkara is for weebs
>>2567577If ypu want your first with intent to add more later get a 4 weight and learn to fly fish small stuff (panfish, dink bass, trout) then add an 8 weight for pike, bass, carp, saltwater, etc. As you fish more with those two combos you'll figure out if you want to add a 2, 6, or 10 weight fly rod to your arsenal.
>>2567583Yes definitely start on a 4 then add an 8 later
>>2567587Just catch and arouse a male duck and use his penis, the lightest cork screw is the one you don't have to carry. If you don't like that option amd already carry a multi tool just get a drywall screw, screw that in to the cork, then grab it with the pliers and pull.
