[cool]Welcome to Fun, Frustration and pure pleasure!
When I first started fly fishing the guy sold me some of those little Eylets that you slip up inside the end of the Fly line.
You'll forget you have em' soon. Just dont look in the Mirror for a few days, you wont be embarrassed so much that way.
There's two ways to fix the Butt section of your leader to your Fly line.
Some favor using a loop in the fly line and a loop in the butt section and looping them together. Seconds and it's done.
I liked to tie the Nail knot ([url "http://www.animatedknots.com/splice/"]http://www.animatedknots.com/splice/[/url])
which I'd still do if I had those good eyes again.
I like it smooth and streamlined.
What did you wind up with?
What Rod?
What Line?
What Reel?
and most interesting of all, what are you going to fish for and where?
